Freeview channels through Sky+HD box

I have heard a rumour that sky will be removing the ability to watch freeview channels through a Sky box without a subscription, any truth behind this?

If you still get BBC channels on your box you are not affected.

If your box is affected and you havent changed to Sky Q or Stream/Glass, your subscription for Sky TV will end unless you contact Sky to upgrade your box.
