Sky extra mini box

I have a sky mini box and would like another one. Is there a charge to have another box? I was offered a second box on connection but declined at the time.

Yes there is a one off upfront loan cost for additional minis.
You could try negotiating with Sky but normally only the first mini is sometimes loaned free.

However the monthly Multiscreen subscription covers all minis

Be aware the original 1TB (non-UHD) Sky Q box only allows one mini to be in use. To check if you have the non UHD 1TB box check in:-
Home - Settings - System Info - Hardware Version
If it shows as 32Cxxx then you have a non UHD 1TB that only supports 1 active mini box.

Just checked and it's saying hardware version 32D00D wondering now if I could have another mini box now 🤔

32D** is the version of your mini box. You need to check the version of the main Sky Q box.
