Thinking of getting SKY HD.........but is it worth the £300 for the box and the extra £10 a month....Will be £53 a month with all the channels.

I dont mind the monthly cost but just wondering if the £300 up front for the box is worth it at the minute or do you think it will cme down in price soon???

I want it as there is no point in having a nice HD plasma with out using it to its full potential like most people are doing

 

I cancelled my Sky on Wednesday and they offered me it £49 fitted free, still fucked em off though

 

I was just in this boat and i decided against it... Got another Sky+ in multi-room.

There is like 10 channels in HD and thats it for your £300 !!

 

Yes, and the box is only £149 pounds now

 

Where is it for £149... !??

upgraded my sky plus to HD, with free fitting , all from sky

 

They could have mad the deal abit sweeter by saying your monthly payments will be the same as they were with normal sky

 

I mean a new customer

 

Can you get sky plus boxes then?? and if so can you just plug them in,to your existing sky,and it will all work ok??Or am i over looking some MASSIVE fault???

Pete..

 

all existing sky customers have been sent this special offer @ £200, their then gave me an extra £50 quid off with free install as i have HD and sky plus

 

Pete

You have to subscribe to Sky +

 

thats WANK then aint it!!!!

FUCK Sky HD,buy my 5 you fat coooooooooont!!!

Pete..

 

no you don't
you just plug in 2 leads for the sky plus
job done
they charge you the extra because you are then useing the same set up as theywould have for multiroom, ie 2 inputs from the lnb, which i htink they have to turn on from some poiunt

 

So if i got a box,i dont need anything else? I just plug it in???

Pete..

 

is all this HD worth it.

 

Il be honest Dave,i dunno!!!

Ive just brought a 37" LCD,HD ready,HDMI TV,and i dont know what any of it means!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just sounded good,and it was big!!!!

Pete...

 

i have just got a 42" one.

 

for sky+ then yes, as long as you have a 4 point lnb fitted you should be able to run more than one feed from the dish
for hd you need specific stuff from sky to get it to work

 

From whos house???????????

Pete...

 

Quality !

Regards Doug .

 

ok,ok..not that funny....

Awwww bless Dave !

i would wait as paying for HD is pointless atm as not much is shown in true HD yet plus then thomson box they give isnt very good either.

theres a new pace HD sky+ box in progress at the moment i saw it the other day being tested at work my mate said it's very good and much better then the thomson one which is out now when it was in the same stage of testing.

as for the other question you cant just plug in a sky+ or hd and expect to get the relevent functionality you must ring sky up and they will send a signal down giving you the function to you sky card!

Cheers,

Hardeep.

 

2012 is when they will transmit hd to everyone.

ages away.

 

like the oylimpics
