Viewing card & multi-room
I have a second sky box with no viewing card, so I dont get the FTV channels.
Where can i get a viewing card from??
Could i subscribe to multi-room, just for one month, then cancel??, this way i get a (almost) free viewing card.
I'm guessing i dont need to enter into a 12month contract as I already have an installed 2nd box.
Maybe theres an easier way of getting a viewing card?

Re: Viewing card & multi-room
If you wanted to, You could get yourself a FreeSatFromSky card (about ~£20 from Sky or another dealer) this would enable you to view all those FTA and FTV channels. That is a one-off payment, No contract etc.
However, Thats all you would get! If you are subscribed to now (or in the future) a Mix (Entertainment, Documentaries, Style etc) to be able to watch it on both boxes, You would need to get a multiroom subscription. Hope that helps.
(Although the site is outdated (channels need updating)) This is the main site: freesat from Sky - A new way to get free digital satellite TV

I think £20 for a card is a rip-off!
So i pay 4 all the equipment and installation, then they want another £20 off me for a card!
This is not the way to compete with freeview! where i can get a box for less than £20!
How long before all the channels become FTA?? and when will E4 and more4 be FTA or FTV on satellite??
Sky would be far more popular as a second TV feed if more channels were FTA.

Thats right it costs sky huge amounts of money to produce these cards.
We should be thankful they are only £20.
Thanks SKY for once more putting the customer first!
Anyone know when Channel 4 is going FTA?
I cant wait, then i'll need to pay £20 for a viewing card to watch SKY3. Bargain.
