Does it come with a sky viewing card and if not will an old 'sky + (white box) viewing card work with it?

My viewing cards about 10 years old and works fine. Great company to deal with.

Does it come with a viewing card....? Do I need, to watch freeview?

Does not come with a viewing card. No card required to watch any Freesat channels. All Freeview channels (with very few exceptions) plus many others are available via Freesat. NB Freeview is a terrestrial system through an aerial so is not receivable by this device. You can use a Sky card if you wish to pay for subscription channels.

Can I use my old viewing card with my new box?

Yes, we did and didn't have any problems at all. Literally, plug it in, pop the card in and go.

Does this come with remote control.? Will I still need to pay sky subscription, as where I live no satellite dish and no sky cable on wall

YES. It comes complete with Remote,HDMI, mains lead. You would need a dish aligned to 28deg East Astra Satellite and in order to view Sky channels you would need to pay sub. to Sky. However there are over 200 FREE channels you can receive using this box some in HD
