I thought all cards had to be supplied to a specified person / UK address... and I also thought that there was a restriction of one per address. John |

I don't think that you can do it twice. You can't... I already tried... What you can do is call them up and say you want another card for a box you bought 2nd hand ... (for use in teenage son's bedroom) |

Britain just gets sillier and sillier. -- Digibox problem? : A reboot solves 90% of these.
