second digibox

Been a sky customer (sports package) for 3 years now and recently looked
into getting an extra digibox.
Originally last week, Sky customer services told me it was £99 for the box
and £15 a month extra subscription. Now they are telling me that it is
those prices plus an extra £50 for installation.
I absolutely resent having to pay so much to watched sky on another tv in
the house, but due to arguements about there being so much footie on TV when
the season gets going, we feel an extra box is the only resolution.

So I am wondering if anyone knows about any special deals at the moment
which Sky are not telling me about? Or if there is another way to get sky
sports

Thanks

Watch out that they don't give you a minibox for that price. These are
not nice.

Almost everything gets a quick repeat within the week, particularly since Sky
One Mix came into being. It's unlikely you'll find two things on at the same
time that both never get such a repeat.

Afew weeks ago you could get Sky+ and a mirror sub for the sub of mirror

installation charge and no cost for relocation of existing box. it now costs

Was that a loyalty thing or was it a standard offer?
