I have Sky+ HD but second box (multi room) will not receive the paid channels. All works fine on the main box!

I have tried switching off and on, doing a software update on the box and reactivating the viewing card (several times) all to no avail.

I contacted sky who are telling me I need to upgrade to skyQ and they will provide an additional sky Q box so it can be watched in other room.

I have to pay £50 for any additional boxes.

at present I can watch sky in several rooms as they have been wired up.

What is happening on this box @SpeatMa1 are you seeing an upgrade message or a no satellite signal one ?

@SpeatMa1 

To get you some help with this I have escalated your post to the Sky Messaging team who should be in touch with you sometime tomorrow morning regarding this via a blue/red chat bubble which will appear at the bottom of this page.


This link explains how this works so you will need to respond to the chat bubble at the bottom of the page when it appears:
https://community.sky.com/t5/Did-you-know/Escalating-a-post-to-a-Sky-expert/ba-p/3711147


When the chat bubble does appear tomorrow you will have 48 hours to respond or it will be automatically closed.
This isn't a live chat so replies are not instant.

Note that Multiscreen is a charge per additional box for Sky+. I don't know whether £7 covers you for just a single Multiscreen box. 

 

It's a single charge regardless of the number of boxes for Sky Q.
