The end of the SKY+ Box
 
As of today the SKY+ box is no longer available to new subscribers. Anyone joining SKY today onwards will get a SKYQ box with their chosen bundle. Pretty much SKYQ as standard.

Not a bad thing. Q is a great service.

Had to happen ,seems silly running 2 services parallel to each other especially when one service is so much better than the other

As to which one is "so much better", thats a matter of opinion.

Nothing Ive seen about SkyQ so far makes it looker better for me.

What happens if you have a communal dish with no sky q capability?

Does this mean the Q box is free or does free still apply to the Sky+ box?

It means it comes as standard for new customers with any Sky package now , or at least the 1TB version does.

I didn't get one yesterday? I did ask the agency installer who said they weren't yet standard kit thus installing a Sky+ box. Should I call in?

It depends what you ordered and how you did it , you don't live in flats and are on a communal dish are you. You could certainly call and ask the question.

I am in a flat but not on a communal dish. I ordered Sky via http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/compar...ommercial.html

Re: The end of the SKY+ Box
 
Sorry for the late response. I did call in to get a reply of which I got because I'm in a flat I cannot get Sky Q. I'm not on a communal dish but that doesn't matter apparently so standard Sky+ box for me.
