Two FTV cards to one box?

sayireland · 2002-10-31 17:46:43

I know it maight have come up already but does anyone know if it is possible to marry a second FTV card to the one box? I know that they ask for the serial number but do they bother to check if it already has one matched to it?

But why?
BBC1 NI and BBC1 Scotland/Wales/England?

Is there any other reason?

Yes indeed it's possible. I got the card activated today. All channels including BBC1 within 20 minutes. No questions and no problems.

This I did with a second box which doesn't have any sub.

I wonder if it's worth taking the chance with a subbed box. I did hear/read somewhere that even though the BBC department at Sky do ask for the box details and could easily if they wanted to they don't actually cross reference for privacyreasons. Don't know if there is any truth in it.
