Want to sign-up to a new TV, broadband and home phone bundle? Consider switching to Sky as the satellite TV giant is now offering a free Sky+ box for all new subscribers.

Sky (www.sky.co.uk) is now offering a free Sky+ set-top box and free standard set-up, if you sign-up for one of its triple-play TV, phone and broadband bundles online.

The offer, which ends on 15 July, will save you £79 for the box and the installation, and you’ll also get a free £25 M&S gift voucher if you sign-up online.

To qualify, you will need to sign-up for a Sky Broadband and Sky Talk package, as well as Sky’s line rental.

Prices start from £36.50 a month for 20Mb broadband, line rental, free evening and weekend calls and one Sky viewing “pack”. To add more channels, you will have to subscribe to additional viewing packs.

Jon Ingram, operations director at Digitalchoices.co.uk, said: “If you’ve been planning to get Sky+, now’s the time to take the plunge. With a summer of sport and great films to watch, this offer will make the process of upgrading your household to digital TV a lot easier.”

He added: “The Sky+ box lets you pause and rewind live TV, and you can also record programmes, so you’ll never miss an episode of your favourite show.”
