Default Question about mirror subscription

Hi there.

If I ordered a mirror sub for my spare digibox, could I cancel it after a
few months?

And if so, would they want the mirror card back?

And if they didn't, would it still be able to receive the non-subscription
services a la the solus card?

Cheers!

Paul

12 months minimum contract. Also for the duration you have the mirror
subscription *both* digiboxes have to be connected to the same
telephone line and must be able to call back to prove that the terms
of the subsciption is being met.

Guess that nips that little idea in the bud.

Cheers anyway!

Sky would say "no". I would say "yes" given that the mirror sub is
merely an extension to your existing contract, not a separate
contract. I would happily argue this in court.


And if so, would they want the mirror card back?


No, they don't generally ask for cards back. However, if you had to
take them to court to cancel then I suspect that they would make an
exception.


And if they didn't, would it still be able to receive the non-subscription
services a la the solus card?


Yes, unless they deliberately deactivated it.
