@Scorps4x Sky have a team of people trained to help people with many types of accessibility needs you should register with them as explaned here https://skyaccessibility.sky

 

They will be able to help you understand what you have ordered and check it is the best package for you. You may want to call them when your carers are with you as if you want you can ask for Sky to speak to them so they can help,you.

A 'phone line' (data bearer cable) is required for internet to be supplied to the address.

my care workers told me I should have got a TV and and the internet and this is cheaper

The Sky Glass television isn't 'cheap': it's a very expensive and now rather elderly bit of hardware, and not a particularly good set by current standards.

and for people with mental health problems 

 

Sky, like other ISPs, has a cheaper basic internet bundle for those in receipt of certain benefits: there's no reduction on subscription television services.  Glass television (and the Stream puck) are different to Sky Broadband, but often sold side by side.

Called me

I received the telephone call from sky offering me sky hub ...wifi...I wasn't sure I said I may not pass the  credit check 

Nothing to worry about....was said to me....

I mentioned tv I would like with a package  ..agent wad only interested in getting me up on broadband  WiFi and said we will make your tv smart..

Didn't understand as I wanted new smart  tv.

After being cleared  so happy . But nowin I feel tricked

@Scorps4x 

Sky won't call you based on a forum post. Sky won't know who you are. You need to instigate contact.
