Time for another ‘Deal Alert” – Sky have started to offer the Sky+HD box free even if you don’t take out the HD pack at £10 per month (although there is a £30 set-up fee). Until yesterday you had to pay £49 for the box if you didn’t take it in conjunction with the monthly HD Pack.
Here’s the difference – take the box with the HD Pack and you’ve got Supertelly (as long as you have an HD Ready TV then you have everything you need for full HD glory, which is what Supertelly is all about). Take the box without the HD Pack (deals start at £18 a month) and you’ve essentially got yourself a free Sky+ Box – although as already mentioned with a £30 set-up fee. The box is identical but without the HD Pack it’s a Sky+ Box rather than a Sky+HD Box – geddit?
So money-wise if you want HD channels and pay £10 a month for the HD Pack you’ll save £30 on set-up fees, as the Sky+HD Box is still free with free set-up on this deal.
The old standard Sky Box remains available only as part of a new Multiroom subscription.
