Glass tv

If I change to sky glass will I still be able to use boxes in bedrooms for 2 additional tvs or will there be another device with additional charge.  At moment pay around £10 per box.   Also deal just now 20% off but what are additional costs for Sky Glass tv.  It is surely not a case of buy tv put in and away is there additional costs as it's streaming tv making monthly Sky costs even higher

If you change to Sky Glass and wish to view Sky on TVs in other rooms then yes, you will need to add a Sky Stream puck for each additional room/TV you wish to view on. You also need to pay for the monthly Whole Home subscription, normally an extra £10-15 per month. One Stream puck is loaned for free with this, and additional ones have a one-off £39.95 activation fee. 

On top of the cost of the Glass TV itself is the cost of the streaming subscription. This varies depending on which channels you want and the duration of the contract you agree to. The cheapest is Essential TV which is basically the free-to-air channels plus Sky Atlantic, Netflix and Discovery+. This costs upwards of £15pm. Ultimate TV gets you more channels plus HBO Max, Disney+ and Netflix but costs upwards of £24pm. 

It also costs extra for ad-skipping to fast forwards ads on certain apps, and extra for UHD/Atmos on selected Sky content and extra if you want premium tiers of HBO Max, Disney+ and Netflix. 

Costs can quickly mount up so make sure you work out exactly what you watch and don't end up paying for things you won't use.

You will need the Whole Home Subscription at £15 a month. This allows you to have up to three Sky Glass TVs, along with an additional six pucks.
