    Default free sky box office ?

    i have not tried it so i dont know if its true...apologies to the mods if this is NOT allowed

    This works on about 80% of sky boxes and does not work on the newest of boxes.
    Two methods listed below.

    METHOD 1: Unlocking Sky Box Office


    This really is a simple trick.


    It is based on the fact that all the Digibox needs to activate a movie
    or
    event of your choice is a phone line which it will use to send details
    of
    the films/ events you have watched to Sky so they can bill you later.



    The 'magic' boxes being sold are just a 9v battery connected to a
    phone
    socket to fool the box into thinking that a phone line is present, the
    idea
    being that your box can never 'phone sky and so you will never have to
    pay.



    My solution is far simpler.



    There is a 'secret' installers menu which allows you to add a prefix to
    the
    Sky phone number ( '9' for an outside line in a hotel for example).



    All you need to do is add a false prefix and the box can never 'phone
    Sky!



    It is that easy.



    Here's how to do it:



    Press 'Services'
    Press '4' (system setup)
    Press '0' then '1' then 'select' (to activate 'secret' menu)
    Press '3' (telephone settings)
    Scroll to 'Dialling prefix'
    Enter a prefix of your choice (NOT 999 or 112, you don't want the fire
    brigade round your house at 2am!)
    Scroll to 'Save New Settings'
    Done!


    Now the box will just get an error message when attempting to send Sky
    your
    viewing information.





    METHOD 2: Unlocking Sky Box Office



    FREE SKY BOX OFFICE

    here he is what you do
    (1) go to a box office channel
    (2) press select
    (3) it will now ask you for your pin number do not put this in yet
    (4) unplug your digital box from the telephone line
    (5) now enter your pin number _ _ _ _ this is the last four digits on your
    sky card
    (6) your picture will now come on
    (7) when you have watched you movie or sport event
    (8) switch off your sky digital box from the mains for 5 mins
    (9) switch your box back on then plung your telephone back in this methord
    will reset your digital box so sky will not know you have watched
    anythinghappy viewing

    It's an old old scam and it is not really true.

    You can rack up a £50 bill and after that you can't get any mpre PPV until you pay it off.
