Re: Sky agent or Using an address from the UK

Thank for the info. Still the answer is not so clear. Apparently, the only way is to say that you can't have phone in the room which would explain why you don't want the multi-room. But I don't understand that. I thought that for activating a SKYbox you needed a Line. I thought that within 12 months they probably check if your sKYBOX is connected. So how come you can explain that you don't have phone in that room, and at the same time want to have a skybox in there. IT just does not make sense to me.

What is needed for a SKYBOX: A Line or not ?


regards,

NO phone line is needed (especially when you buy the box at FULL price or second hand).

You MUST :

Have a UK Address.

Call them to activate your card, but if they see you are calling from abroad you are in deep s*!t. I've even heard them questioning why the number is blocked. So best to try and do this from the UK, or get a Tesco internet phone.

Personally I would NOT use an agent unless there was no other option. SKY is already a RIP-OFF and the extra cost for an agent makes this even more expensive.
