INDEPENDENT APPS REMOVED

[Simon72]

My account is restricted which I am aware of but the apps that I get free or pay separately from Sky have been removed this shouldn't happen

If you mean Sky Q then app access (on the box only) is also restricted as per the terms and conditions.

Doesn't sound right.  Which apps and removed from where?

It doesn't work like that, if your bill hasn't been paid then you access to the content your Sky Q box has is also restricted.

[PandJ2020]

From Q T&C's: (My emphasis)

"If your Sky services end or are restricted we may disable the relevant loaned equipment to stop it from
working. When we do this to a Sky Q box you won’t be able to receive any content including free-to-air
channels or other third party content and services."

Part of the Sky Q subscription pays for app availability through Sky-branded hardware.  If you wish to have access while the Q account is in deficit you'd need to use apps on a smart television set or other device.
