HD Install Date

Anyone else had the call saying they are having problems with the boxes
and have to put back install dates from 24May to 01Jun ?
They are now giving the first 2 months free apparently for the
inconvenience ! *******

Strange. A couple of people on the digitalspy forums ordered boxes from
simply digital and had them delivered to their houses today.

No mention yet that they're having problems with the software or something
else on the boxes??

That could be a problem but only Sky could give you 2 months free of
something you have'nt even got yet...Clever almost :-/

Seems like a good deal to me, I'd go for a week off sky to get the next two
months free.

Mines due for installation tomorrow (May 22nd). No calls from Sky to
postpone.

So I assume either they screwed up with me or they do have *some* of
the boxes.

What's more, if you're happy to delay your installation until after July 10th,
they'll give you 4 months free.
