You get Five but not Fiver, Five US or Sky Three. And the region defaults to London, so not good for BBC1 or ITV1 (Unlike true Freesat boxes, FreeSatFromSky requires the card to be programmed for the correct region by Sky - it's not user-settable. Freesat boxes have their region set by the user entering their postcode).

The card should be valid for a good few years - it's worth having IMO.
