If you live in the UK and have an out of contract SKY box and card, but want RTE, you can do this:1. Remove your out of contract UK card and put it to one side - this is now an FTV card, needed for CH4, five, five US, five life and Sky3.2. Send the digibox by itself over to the emerald isle, where your brother will need to call Sky and request a second hand contract - or viewing card only subscription (no new equipment / installation). This will be at least 2 mixes. Current price is €21.50 per month for this, current offer is first month free (regardless of chosen package).

Upon activation, the account is live and 12 month minimum term contract begins.4. Once activated, your brother sends the digibox and new card back to you in the UK for you to enjoy.
