How Do I Use Sky For FTV?
 

My mum and dad live in a pretty poor reception area. Normal terrestial is
pretty poor and Freeview just doesn't work at all.

I have Sky+ so have a spare Sky DigiBox. I was thinking of getting it set
up for them as a Christmas present for them. I can sort out buying a new
dish and get an engineer engineer to install but there are a couple of
things I'm not sure about

(i) How do I get a Free To View (FTV) card?
(ii) Given it's FTV do I have to connect to a telephone point?
(iii) My parents are pensioners and get very nervous and scared about
authority. If I go this route do they need to be register with Sky or
not? - basically I don't want them being pressured into buying things they
don't want.

Cheers,

Nigel
