started when I was 11 with my parents-forgot to stop!been real one since 1980!
As far as I am aware the phone need only be connected for 12 months at the start of the contract. My cousin in Belgium has sky and has had it for about 6 years with her dads address here registered,but he doesn't have a box.

Those of us who live abroad have no trouble getting Sky - in our case, we have the full package. There are many outfits who will organise an account for you. Just use Google sensibly and you will find them. No need to be connected to a phone line. Even if that happened to be a problem, it is one that can easily be solved with a VoIP line!:Smile:

yes mine is the same,the question was if you full time?

We are full time and have Sky.

We use our daughters address and pay by Direct Debit,

We phoned one rep at Sky who said we couldn't have it without a landline connected. We tried again and this time there was no problem. We did explain that we were going Full Time in the Motorhome.

The first time you turn it on in the van you get a message on screen saying that the card isn't compatible please ring SKY on ******************* . told them what I was doing and he authorised both boxes to the one card. That was 2 years ago and havent had any problems since.
