@Wos

You won't be able to pair it to a different box to the normal box it's normally in.

The account holder at that address would have to contact Sky who will discuss the options of upgrading to Sky Q, Glass or Stream to continue to watch via a Sky subscription.

Below is from Sky's Terms & Conditions

4.4. You must only use the Viewing Card for private viewing purposes. You must not use it for any commercial or business purpose or in any premises other than your address.

4.5. The Viewing Card must not be used outside the country (either the UK or Republic of Ireland) it was supplied for use in.
