The only thing i can see them saying is yes thats fine, but we're gonna charge you for installation or something
If you read the Sky FAQ it says it's ok to buy second hand equipment from your firends to use, so one would assume that it's ok to buy new from a retailer. They say all you need to do is phone up for installation or just phone them up to associate the box.

I ended up getting a Sky HD box as it was £70 more than the Sky price of a Sky+ box. I'm interested in this anytime service, plus once more HD channels become available I would like to try that one out too

Got to wait a week and a half before I move into the flat to get mine setup. Will buy the TV and try and get everything setup before I move in though, if I'm allowed to

Its free though??
The £99 for the box is a bargain, if you use all the recording features through your phone etc
