I signed back up to HD for F1, got £100 of M&S vouchers for it too!

Soo glad i did today has been great, shame about the adverts, but I guess thats with sky+ is for!

Oh how long did the vouchers take to arrive ? I signed up last week ( installed yesterday ) and the other half is wanting the vouchers

paulh · 16 Mar 2012 at 13:07

about 2 weeks from what I remember.

I took mine to a M&S store bought a gift card with them (you cant spend vouchers online) and spent them on the m&S online shop on a new camera! Bonus!!

I thought so. TBH it was my GF's idea! :eek:

Can anyone with Sky SD on Virgin let me know how they'd rate the quality? SD is soo last century but I'm not sure I can bring myself to go fully Sky....

Need to ask a quick question. On Sky Go do you only get the channels you subscribe to? I.e if you dont have HD / Sports you cannot get the F1 channel on Sky Go?

Lunatic Dreyfus · 16 Mar 2012 at 16:15

No. I did briefly consider looking in to upgrading my Virgin Media package, but realised that it was all just a rip off and my money needed to go elsewhere.

I'll stick with the low rent BBC coverage, unless I can con a rich relative in to letting me get at their Sky-Go malarky.

Yes, you obviously only get the channels you subscribe to.

You can use my Sky login for £10 a month if you want

That is exactly the sort of thing i might need to do lol

therealnerd2 · 17 Mar 2012 at 11:48

I did it.

I feel soiled

VM were useless anyway. I'm looking forward to faster broadband, sky+ and f1

Anyone wanting skygo should keep an eye out on the bay. Was one going for £90 for the year.

I just looked and Sky HD is £100 cashback and £100 M&S vouchers through quidco :confused:

After not being able to watch the first race I bucked this week and ordered SKY. I got it for half price so only £17 a month.

I still would not have buckled at full price.
