Just looking for some mobile data to use when we go away do sky offer a mobile data dongle ?

Posted by a Sky employeeWe do not offer this option yet unfortunately.
But if you have got a sky mobile with some data stored in your piggybank, you could always tether devices to your mobile and use it as a hotspot and roll data from the piggybank.

Hi, if I use my phone as a hotspot outside the UK can I still use my data or are there extra charges?
Also, can I connect to my Sky Q whilst outside the UK?

Thanks I’ll give it a try. Shame about the Sky Go, rather mean of Sky given you can't take a break in subscription

1 Year on, and I am afraid to say this is not the case. I was told the same thing with SKY 3 days a go, Received the new sim card and I have tried this and it does not work. I have an unlock dongle from EE (ZTE MF65) and can use it with a data sim from EE, ASDA, TMOBILE but not with SKY.
According to the data I have researched SKY sim card are not meant to be used with anythign but a mobile phone or tablet. It does sometimes say you can use it with a router but not most router I have found have a sim slot except TP link M7350 routers. I have not tried this as at the moment not ready to splash out on another device to find it too does not work.. Stuck and like most feel I have been mis-lead/ mis-sold, a package that can't be used for the purpose it was intented.

I feel like I've been well shafted by Sky. I bought a to-link 4g router to use in my caravan as using my phone as a hotspot was sometimes iffy. The router says plug and play any sim but guess what not with a sky sim. Luckily Curry's gave me a refund so now I've got to try and get sky to cancel the sim contract I took out to use on it.
