Got a sky hd 1tb box for £149.00 and free self install.
Just made a random call to sky,been looking at the 1tb hd box and have wanted one for a while.It was offered to me for £149.00 with free self install.Should be with me for tuesday 11th of jan.so im a happy bunny.If any of you are thinking of it give it a try you never know,i just asked if there were any offers for current subscribers.
Yes sorreltiger it's worth a try,i had probs with my thompson hd box and got a replacement amstrad box.It's loads better,faster software.500gig hard drive and had no probs at all.but looking forward to the new box,more 3d content to record now.And with sky alantic on the horizon it's gonna be bteer to record more.good luck and let us know how you get on.
Whats Sky Alantic ?
sorry bad spelling mistake.
I did the same a couple of months ago, as I was having a problem with my old box, these 1TB boxes are excellent, I never seem to be able to fill it.
Are these Amstrad boxes?
Nice one Daveh75,
Made the call and got the same deal for the 1tb box, was told the normal selling price was £499...............
Don't know if i should believe that or not.
Anyway looking forward to putting the box of not so many tricks old Thompson HD box to bed!
Eh? it's sonycentre you should be thanking.keiser1:Nice one Daveh75,
You were right to be sceptical!Made the call and got the same deal for the 1tb box, was told the normal selling price was £499...............
Don't know if i should believe that or not.
What they told you is total tosh...The normal price is £249 (which is overpriced, but £499, ROFLMAO)
Does anyone know if these new 1TB Sky+HD boxes upscale better than its predecessor (i.e set it to 1080i rather than 'AUTO')?
Thanks,
Paul.

Thanks Sonycentre ..bring it on Parcelforce!
Rang sky today asked about £149 offer but was told it's only available if you were one of the first to have hd becuse boxes kept breaking down and that is why you should have received a letter offering the £149 deal. Could you tell me if this is true in your case or just more sky bulls***, I've had my hd for 28 months and I'm on my fourth box but Sky said no I don't qualify.

It's all Sky bulls***. If you call them gain at some other time, you'll get a different story. Or just tell them that you're appalled at the way you've been treated despite being a Sky customer for almost 3 years, & now you're considering Virgin to save yourself £120 per year (as the V HD box doesn't attract a monthly £10 fee for HD) & you're not really bothered about live pause etc.
ive been a sky customer for 21years thats what loyalty gets you seems like they dont need my £149

I am very tempted to give this a go as my old Thompson box is becoming more and more flaky!
