Sky Essentials

My Sky Q Signature comes to an end on 28th March. I would like to keep the Sky Q box and have read I can get Sky Essentials for £5/month and keep the Sky Q box. How can I get this?

hi @hynesn

I think the only way to do this is to call SKY

BTW I presume you are aware that Essentials allows just access to the Freesat Channels

Have you given notice to cancel then? It doesn't end until you do - just discounts expire otherwise.

As above, you have to call Sky - but I believe it's more than £5pm now.

The latest freesat 4k boxes work with Sky LNB and have no monthly fee.

Bit pricey at £250-300 though
