Get a free Sky HD box
Once again I am at a loss to understand available United Kingdom TV packages. Generally speaking the best deals for high definition TV programming are available from both Sky TV and Virgin Media. But the pricing of Sky TV packages and Virgin Media bundles are more than a bit confusing. Basically both of these companies charge extra for service that will include a Sky HD box or a Virgin HD box. So, you might ask what is complicated about that? The complication arises when trying to understand the monthly pricing for each of these HD packages. In its most simple form Sky HD TV involves purchase of the high definition set top box at a cost of up to 299 pounds plus an additional 10 pounds per month added to your TV subscription. The comparable Virgin HD box cost much less and HD programmes are free with a Virgin Media package. It should be noted that long-term Sky customers can negotiate a far superior price for the Sky HD box and new subscribers can expect to receive the Sky HD box for free. As is always the case before one signs any long-term contract for home telecom service they should investigate online any short term incentives being offered and reviews by customers. By signing up online you can expect to get an HD set top box for free and receive free set up as well.
