Do I need Sky WiFi Max when using third-party boosters

Hello

I've been reviewing my monthly bill with Sky, and have noted that I'm currently paying £8 per month for Sky WiFi Max.

Here's my question: even with three Max Pods provided by Sky, our home WiFi performance was miserable and completely unreliable. After taking some advice from a family member who works for OpenReach, I have invested in a mesh system which is connected to the Sky Fibre router by Ethernet cable. As such, that system is now providing full DHCP and WiFi for our home, and I've now disabled the WiFi in the Fibre router.

With all of this in mind, do I still need to pay the £8 for Sky WiFi Max?

@Hendo73 No, get the sky Max subscription addon cancelled, and be prepared to send the 3 Max pod booster's back to them, you also lose all the other added benefit's so look see what is important to you as you do not say!. Linked below if you need to go read!
