You don't need to contact Sky Ireland as the information you need is online:

As Cuba is a rest of the world country then using your phone there is going to cost you a small fortune:

£2,160 per GB (yes this is correct)

£2.16 per minute Calls to local or UK mobile and landline numbers

£1.80 per minute to receive calls

£0.50 per text message to UK numbers and mobiles

£0.58 per picture message(MMS)

@caesarome I think Ireland roaming is different - but equally as expensive

Perhaps keep in mind that Cuba is neither a democracy, a capitalist economy or (due to decades of US trade embargo) at the cutting edge of technology.

Physical SIM cards for the single state-owned mobile phone network can apparently be reserved for airport pickup: coverage outside urban areas may well be patchy.
