need a new box
You won't get a Sky+ box from Sky. The Sky+ service is now obsolete. You can upgrade to Sky Q if you want to continue receiving Sky via satellite or you can opt to switch to their streaming service which relies on your broadband.

Re: sky box broken
Please Note: Sky+ is now a legacy/obsolete service that Sky are replacing with their newer services: Sky Glass, and/or Sky Stream.
Satellite TV is on its last legs and is being replaced due to the lack of any new satellites being launched to replace the existing ones that are at the end of their service
There is no such thing as a new Sky+ box

Re: sky box broken
@drever123 don't be tempted to buy a replacement, second hand Sky+ box. It will only allow you to watch, not record, the free to air channels. It won't work for any other channels you subscribe to, or to record.
