Hepl with Sky plus and hd box

[Angelfifi]

Hi all,
Dont know if anyone can help me. We are looking to upgrade our sky box to sky plus. When i phoned sky they said that they dont do sky plus on there own its now with sky hd and will cost a extra £10 a month plus £100 for the box unless we take out multi room then it would be free!!
But as i told them i dont want hd and dont want multi room!! but i would still have to pay £10 extra a month bla bla.....
Anyway i was wondering if i bought a sky plus box off ebay if i could put my sky card into the box or would i have to phone sky to sync it together????
Hope that all makes sense!!!

I've just checked the website and they have an offer for new customers to get a free sky+ box when the take the talk and broadband thing.
We got our box upgraded to sky+ by threatening to leave them!
In answer to your question about buying one from ebay, when the engineer installed ours he upgraded the reciever on the dish and connected another wire so that you can record one channel whilst watching another. He did put our old viewing card in the new box but I think he did something to register it.
