Hi, I've just cancelled Sky after 23 years. I've never watched tv any other way. If I paid to keep my Sky box - it's the 1TB Q box - can I use this to watch free channels, BBC etc? Just deciding if it's worth calling to ask and paying the £117 to keep it or if I should just buy a set top freeview box? Thanks in advance 😃

@Helenk7611 The only way you could keep it is to downgrade to the Q essentials package which will give you access to the FTA channels and recording/playback functionality but only for the duration of that subscription
