You can get a subscription card to work in a new box by phoning Sky and
giving the box details, as long as you are receiving a good signal, they
must send a signal to do this.


I don't fancy doing this every time I want to watch tv in a different
room though. Do you think if I phoned them enough they'd give in and
provide me with an unlocked card, or do they simply not exist?

After you have both boxes registered, all you have to do is move the
card from one box to another.

I think a card to watch in a second room is a tenner a month, I seriously
doubt you would ever get anything cheaper fom them.

Most unlikely. They will change the card registration when you change
your box for a new one, but there's no way you're going to allow you to
keep carting the card to different boxes round the house.

A 'multiroom' card will cost you £10 for each additional box (the last
time I looked) which will mirror your subscribed channels on the main
box.
