Sky Digital For Flats
Do you live in a block of flats and would like Sky Digital but thought the installation would be aggravation or near impossible?
A lot of people don’t realise that Sky can arrange for a communal IRS (integrated reception system) or a shared dish system to be installed.
IRS System
The Sky IRS is a complete system comprising of Tv aerial, radio aerial and satellite dish and will usually have to be arranged by the social landlord, developer or management company.
Shared Dish System
The Sky shared dish system is a shared dish solely for viewing Sky Tv in blocks with less than 49 flats and no higher than 3 stories (one dish for up to 24 subscribers, two for more subscribers). If the block is taller than 3 stories Sky may still be able to install for you and can offer bespoke installations. To have the shared dish system installed you only need 4 households/flats to sign up for Sky’s shared dish.
To register your interest with one of these scheme’s or to find out more information visit Sky’s communal Tv systems website at communaltv.sky.com
Sky Box Installation Fees
Sky are to charge for installation of the standard Sky box for new customers from July 1st this year. The new charge will be £30, but the equipment will still be free for new customers.
New customers taking up Sky Plus or Sky HD will also pay £30 instead of the usual £60 fee.
Customers who sign up for Sky Multiroom will still receive free installation of all their equipment.
To order a standard Sky box and subscription before the price increase please visit Sky Tv.
This small price increase for the standard Sky box corresponds with the abolishment of the Sky Plus £10 subscription fee, and leads me to believe that Sky are on a push for more Sky Plus customers. With Freeview Playback branded PVR’s on the market now and BBC Freesat to launch early next year (possibly with more PVR’s), it makes sense for Sky to remove the Sky Plus subscription fee.

Sky Plus Subscription Fees
Good news for all potential and existing Sky + subscribers.
From July 1st 2007 all Sky plus users, regardless of their channel package, will get full Sky plus functionality with no extra monthly fees.
At present subscribers only get Sky plus functionality for free when they subscribe to either Sky Movies or Sky Sports in their package, and if subscribing soley to either 2, 4 or 6 mixes there is a £10 subscription fee added to the monthly charge.

Viewers with Sky HD boxes now have access to Sky anytime - video on demand functionality, and it’s a free service.
There is content available from the favourite channels like National Geographic, Sky One, Sky Movies and Sky Sports. More content is expected to become available over the coming months.
To access Sky Anytime (video on demand) you need to press the Tv Guide button of the Sky remote, followed by the red button for the on-screen prompt labled Anytime Tv.
