If I already have a Sky dish do Sky change it for a new one at install?
As above really. I have a dish and wiring into my reception room from previous owner (I own my house). If I sign up for Sky are they obliged to actually replace my equipment with new equipment?
Thanks. |

Depends how old the dish is, the engineer may replace it, they may not :)

Just state that you don't want the dish touched .. If it's a new install then you have the right to have a new dish installed and the original one left in situe

To answer your question Sky used my existing dish and cabling because the signal was spot on. |

I'm happy witth Freeview but fed up of the terrible PVR's so just for the sake of a better PVR I re ordered Tivo earlier this week but the order was not processed so currently I'm going through a complaint with VM. But the eventual package I have been offered is more expensive than Sky (they won't offer me the discount for XL tv so my BB L and XL tv + Tivo would be £50+). As I only have 10meg BB I think moving all my services to Sky makes more sense now as Sky Anytime is a great new feature. PS: thank you everyone for the replies. I don't think the dish or wiring really needs replacing so I'm happy for the engineer to not replace. |

don't sky customers take ownership of the dish and boxes and so are responsible for repairs should they develope a fault and if that is the case i would get new equipment so you are responsible for a new dish

VM wanted £33 for XL tv and £22.50 for SS pack so its the same price as what Sky give but without HD pack so its a no brainer. After having V+ for 18 months I thought I could never go back to not having at least two tuners just for recording and a dedicated additional tuner for live tv but its not really worth the difference in cost. |

As for your dilemma re only having two tuners , if you have a Android phone , iPhone , iPod touch , iPad download the Sky+ app find your show and it will normally give dates when it's re-run , or you could use the following off the epg http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/digitalt...ack-icons.html When using the search off the EPG it tends to return your desired programme when typing one keyword so for instance Strike Back Project Dawn just type Strike it will then return results if there's a series stack icon this means it has multiple showings. |

Thanks for the info, Muppetman.
I'm getting an Iphone this month so will get the app. All the channels I watch have their shows repeated to death anyway (as do all the channels I don't watch I would imagine) so shouldn't be a problem. |

Was hoping someone could help me a query I have before my instal.
My current dish feeds into the main reception room and is twin LNB which I use with Freesat. If I get a second dish installed which goes into my bedroom and then get the Sky+HD box installed there, can I then just swap my freesat and Sky+HD box around from upstairs to downstairs? |
