Does a sky+ box have to be connected to a phone line to work?
-
I know the normal sky box is meant to be, but it does work without being connected, so does the sky+ box work as it's meant to while it's not connected?

Answer:
Yes your box will work fine without being connected to a line. The only reason they like it to be connected to a phone line is so they can occasionally update the software on the box. If you dont have it connected for the 1st twelve months though, they get funny about it. They will send you a letter threatening you with charging extra as it is part of your contract. Unfortunately, you will have to have it connected for the 1st 12 months, but after that take it out, every feature of sky + will still work.

Yes you have to have it connected for sky + as we was gonna get it but could only have standard as we never had a bt phone line @ the time

I think that you are supposed to have your phone line connected for the first year (it is in the small print of the contract and it says they can do random checks to confirm this ) but after one year I think you can disconnect it if you like.
