I have two Sky boxes, can I use two cards for one subscription?

[j.venning]

Hi everyone, I have just ordered Sky and have a question;

I have two boxes currently (both on Yellow House), can I ring up Sky to get another card for the subscription Sky that I am getting so it can be viewed on both boxes? Or does the box register with the card etc?

Regards,
AJ

The box registers with the card, you can get them chipped but it's very illegal. You can get those splitter boxes, set you back about £80-£100, that plugs into your sky box, then into another TV, all wireless, you can use the box on two televisions, and you can watch different channels at the same time. Well worth the money..

I thought you could get a second box subscription for a tenner a month or something?

Oh, never knew that.. personally I would go for the £80 box option, you save in the long run and there's no subscription.. but I didn't know you could do that..

You could try one of those wireless tv senders. I have a furgeson one (I believe you can change channel remotly with sky too)
