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.
