"decent" price ?. Bloody fantastic price. I would certainly urge people to snap these up if you see them - i bought one earlier in the year for nearly £100 and it's been brilliant. a fantastic alternative to sky with full recording facilities.
AND .. you can also cast your youtube app to these as well - works just as well as a chromecast, so that's why i sold mine !

I commend Paul in the Weymouth branch for his outstanding customer service. Wouldn't type the number into his computer and just said you've got more chance of finding it in Poole which is 40mins drive away cheers mate. He said to type in the code online as he was too busy.

The one on their website for £79 is not HDR and also does not have a hard drive. If you've managed to get one then keep it as people are struggling to find them at this price. People have not voted this hot just for the sake of it!! Keep it!

Thanks, parents live on the Costa Brava (Palomos) but I cant seem to find much info for that area. Think as you say they need to find a good installer and ask their advice.

5 Dec 151#76
I have Humax 1st model PVR and a 1.85 M dish, depending on your location you will need a local installer to let you know what your location would need in dish size and availability.

Just order the refurbished model on Humax Direct. £96.10 delivered using code HUMAXBD1.

still worth it at that price.

Thanks for the code :smiley:.. the code also works for the HB-1000 S on the Humax Direct site (no HD, but external HD can be added) to make a total of £42.10 with next day DPD delivery. Just need to pick up an external portable HD cheap now.. will probably go for 1TB drive
rdbradshaw to fishboy25uk
5 Dec 15#75
For me it's saying £89.10 so I guessing delivery is £7.

Tried calling the store to check stock and price and they claim it goes to a call centre so can only see online stock not instore , so without going to the store there is no way of knowing. Also they said they don't answer instore at this time of year try next year !! Funny that because yesterday afternoon they were not busy at all .Useless

So nothing new with Curry's

4 Dec 15#66
Just wandered into my local Curry's in Glasgow and got the display model.
Set it up and looks like it's either been switch on in store or a customer return as it was already set up and had a postcode in it. Not to happy
soldierboy001 to gta15
4 Dec 15#67
You should have qualified it before purchase especially as it was display model.
beeb123
4 Dec 15#65
Sorry for the goose chase peeps. Like someone mentioned earlier in the post there was 1 available in Kettering and also 1 in Manchester until this morning. So it has helped a couple of people out. I must admit staff at Currys are not very helpful.

Will this model work abroad say Spain/France ?
soldierboy001 to mick76
4 Dec 151#60
Yes provided you have the right setup as the footprint has been changed to narrow beam since the change of satellites. In Benidorm I find it best to use a Yorkshire post code as not all the regional ITV stations work 100%, i.e. on a Luton postcode I could not get ITV HD only ITV SD but I could get channel 4 HD, on a Leeds post code I get ITV HD but not channel 4 HD only channel 4 SD. Can't be bothered to try other post code combinations because just to get a signal is OK by me.

Refurb. HDR-1000S 500GB for £99 and HB-1000S (without HDD) £39 from Humax direct.

Interloper to JonDOnnis
4 Dec 15#58
None in stock at Durham or Gateshead Team Valley.
Not if you have a slow Internet connection. Also means you can record ITV/C4 etc in HD and whizz through the adverts. Their catchup is still restricted to SD and non-blockable ads.

4 Dec 151#54
001463 is the product code you need for them to check stock. Absolute goon at CS really couldn't be arsed with my call. Only after he emailed a store did the store worker find it on the system using a price search. The product EAN code was useless for finding it. No stock showing in the southwest but hopefully that product code might help members find stock in other regions.
it's a freesat box so you can use your satellite dish if you have a bad signal where you love
Robbo11 to VooDooChilly

Don't know about the differences but I can thoroughly recommend the BT Youview+ box if this deal ends up as another wild goose chase. Got one when I left Sky in September and it is really good, very intuitive,and easy to set up. If you are used to a Sky+ box, it is very similar in use but the BT box is much more compact than the Sky box. It is also made by Humax for BT.

Yes to be able to record and watch 2 separate channels, my advice would be to get a quad LNB which would be only a small amount dearer but would give better performance and allow you to connect further boxes in different rooms.

The one with the HDR is the one on clearance at £74.97. It should be at PC World and currys as they are one company. I doubt there are many left at this price.

This is definitely worth the money if you can find one. Dual tuner with a half gig hdd. Think it might be store specific as doesn't seem to be online. Buy if you see one though :smiley:
By the way, this was at the White City retail park Currys in Manchester and was still available when I posted this deal at 7:30pm. I already have something similar.
