I want to add a Sky+ HD box as a multi room and connect to my Sky account which is a Sky Q.

My grandson is 15 and is autistic. He is determined to watch his Sky on an old Sky+ HD box. I have Sky Q. Is it possible to use the Sky+ box as an extra room and be sent a new Sky+ HD viewing card to add to my subscription?  He does not want just freeview on it.

Thanks

Sky don't send out NEW viewing cards for Sky+, you would need a Sky Q mini box

 

You have never been able to have Sky Q and Sky+ subs at the same address

 

Please Note: Sky+ is now a legacy service that Sky are replacing with their newer services: Sky Q (all issues will be fixed during a Sky Q install), Sky Glass and Sky Stream

@Custard2 

Not possible for a number of reasons

  1. Sky no longer offer Sky+HD subscriptions
  2. you can't mix Sky+ and Sky Q
  3. Sky won't send out a viewing card because of 1 and 2

@Custard2  Sky won't allow you to do this I'm afraid the only way would be to add a sky Q mini and multi screen to your account
