Old sky boxes

[alan+liddell]

Thought I'd posted this already but cannot find the post. Just had new sky Q boxes fitted and the engineer has left our two old sky+ HD boxes. Can I bin those or pass them to someone else or will sky ask for them back?

hi @alan+liddell 

Unlike SKY Q you own the SKY + / HD boxes.

Once your account is switched to SKY Q then you can;t use the old boxes for SKY but they can be used by others as 'Freesat' watch only - they need a different LNB to SKY Q  which will have been swapped for you. 

You can take them to a local re-cycling centre or, I believe, it may be possible to send to SKY for recycling/disposal

@alan+liddellThey are yours to do as you wish with, I would keep them for a bit to make sure you are happy with Q.

However if you want to recycle them use this link to get a freepost label.

Although we need to point out that SKY rarely allow going back to SKY HD
