Got this from elsewhere but it worked for me last night. Yesterday Sky were allowing existing customers to purchase for £49 a refurbished Sky+ box with out multi-room. Must have some premium channels and you get a new 12 month contract. Box comes with 12 warrenty.
As usual with Sky they make you jump through hoops to get it. The only department which can give you the offer are the cancellation department. Some people are having to pretend to wish to cancel etc. I choose the more direct approach which was to let them now I knew the deal existed and they just transferred me to cancellations. They immediately offered the deal. I was on family package so upgraded to a package which consists of Sky Movies 2,4,6,8 and Sky Sports 1,3. I asked for sport 2 instead of 1 as I watch the golf. This was no problem. Installation is on Friday although they must be quiet at the moment as I was offered tomorrow.

First post here, I only stumbled across these forums recently.
Can I ask what number you used for this? I'm looking to get Sky+, but really don't want need multiroom.
Thanks in advance,

the only people that have the offer are cancellations department.
yes
And free install
Not installing until the 8/6/05 though?
There did seem to be some confusion in the cancellations dept as to what this deal was and if it was available but we got there in the end.
I did have to go through the "you must have multi-room" ...but no you don't.
As both of my sky+ are replacements what I have just ordered should be just the same.
Sky must be pushing this offer at the moment, i heard an ad on Virgin this morning to that effect.
a. Under no circumstances could they offer it without Multiroom.
b. They can give no guarantee as to what make and model of equipment would be fitted.
Did a lot of negotiating but to no avail.
they had any left? he went away and came back, I am getting mine friday and want to know the best way to do it- I have sky in the lounge and a cable so we can watch it in the bedroom, i was thinking about getting the sky+ in the sitting room (which we use all the time) would that mean the other sky box would only be freeview? any ideas would be welcome, thanks
I payed £199 plus installation and three weeks later have to get it swapped out and you have now got a recon that you could now buy for just £49!
Neither of my two Sky+ are originals as both have been swapped out at least once.
So if I don't like what is delivered, it could then have a fault and it would be swapped out?
As I understand it , Your second box will become a mirror of the first box in the lounge but it will cost an extra £10 per month for the priviledge and a second card and you'll need to keep both boxes connected to a phone line for the life of the second box , you do subscribe to sports or movies I assume ?
