Review: Looked like a new Sky Box. Set itself up + New leads - Our 15 yr old non HD Sky Box gave up at the weekend. Sky wanted £65 call out fee but i figured it was the box. To be honest we dont watch much sky these days since we got an Apple Box and subbed to streaming services a few years ago. However its handy for a few programs that we like. So i did not want to spend out for a new box and this Sky +HD box seemed a good buy at just over £30 delivered. I was not that bothered if there was a bit of wear either as the box sits in a unit. However this used box looked brand new without a mark. It was well packed and in the box was a new HDMI lead and Power plug. You get some very well written set up instructions but for me it was a simple case of swapping over the 2 boxes. The only thing i had to change was setting the box from a dual LNB input to a single one. My sub card worked straight away. Total set up time 10 mins which inc sitting drinking tea whilst the box config itself. The only thing missing is a Sky remote but i already had a HD version a friend had given me. Overall very impressed for just over £30 much cheaper than calling out Sky or upgrading.
Review: Great product - Was sceptical about purchasing but read the reviews and they convinced me. Came well packaged and the instructions were very easy to understand, they even tell you exactly what to say to Sky! I had everything installed within 10 minutes and if I had plugged the box in it would have been quicker!! If you are like me and questioned whether you would be able to do it yourself, you really can, thank you!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: On the sky box can u watch discovery+On it**
A: How to get discovery+ on Sky Q/Sky Glass?
To redeem your exclusive gift from Sky VIP just say “get discovery+” into your voice enabled Sky remote and follow the onscreen instructions.

If you’ve switched from Sky Q to Glass and you claimed the free 12 month subscription offer while using Sky Q, you can still use the discovery+ app on Sky Glass at no extra cost for the remainder of your 12 month offer. Just sign into the discovery+ app with your discovery+ log in details.

If you're a new Sky customer with Sky Glass, we're unable to offer the free 12 month subscription. If you would like discovery+, you'll need to sign up directly with Discovery.

**Q: Will it work without connecting to telephone line?**
A: No need to connect to the internet may I ask if you have a Sky contract as there may be benefits to connect to the internet but its not necessary, I am happy to speak to you and offer you the best option for your requirements however the deal will still need to via Amazon as Amazon rules are strict, regards Richard. 0203 654 1804.

**Q: Will this box work with a sky lnb that was fitted for sky q?**
A: I would say no this depends on what lnb is fitted as a rule Sky fit wideband lnbs normally for new Sky Q installs. Sky Q lnb's are called wideband lnb's designed for use with the Sky Q boxes only.
 If you change the LNB on the dish to either a legacy lnb (sky hd only) or a hybrid lnb and hybrid can operate both Sky hd and Sky Q at the same time will you get this working on the Sky hd box. We can quote for the install if you ever require this.
regards Richard. Chigwell Satellite.

**Q: I have the basic box upstairs can I swap this for this box and get the on demand channels too?**
A: We were able to get all the channels
