Question regarding BT TV Youview+ box upgrade

[hottequilabrown]

Hi all, I wonder if someone can help me? I have BT TV starter (and the non-recording box) with the BT Sport HD pack and I am thinking of upgrading to BT TV to get some more channels, but I'm also considering purchasing a BT YouView+ box outright instead of subscribing. If I did so, would I just be able to plug it in and carry on watching BT Sport HD as I do now? 

Hope my question makes sense?

Many thanks

James

In August BT Sport will no longer be free.

If you take BT TV Entertainment Plus you get the recording YouView box for £5pm , £60 for the years contract. That must be cheaper than buying one outright.

If you plan to only watch sports and are happy to pay from August getting a youview+ box will only give you recording of freeview programs

You can get second hand boxes on ebay and sometimes even brand new, I sold two myself when I was trying them out
