No, it won't automatically cancel. You need to contact Sky and give 31 days notice to leave, otherwise your current contract prices will revert to full price.

Re: Leaving sky
Hi @Shar66 Only your broadband (and telephone?) will automatically cancel on transfer to a new ISP. Don't tell Sky you are cancelling broadband/telephone as that will screw up the switching process. Leave that to your new ISP. Sky TV is not related to broadband.

Re: Leaving sky
As @MightyQuinn mentions above, for your broadband you need to enable the current switch procedure. By calling a new ISP and they will engage cancellation of your Sky broadband.
To cancel your TV subscription, if you’re out of contract you will need to give Sky the required 31 days notice.
The latest T’s and C’s explicitly state you can’t cancel when still in a minimum term deal unless Sky agree. If they agree you’ll have to pay the remainder of your discounted term.
Select ‘Need more help’ at the bottom of the following link which will provide contact details.

If you successfully cancel you should receive an acknowledgment email from Sky.
If you are cancelling Sky Q, return packaging will be sent out at the end of your notice period.
Make sure you keep your proof of posting.

Hi @Shar66 There is no harm having an overlap. If you give your 31 days notice on the 5th December, then there is a small risk that Sky will cut you off early, so no Sky TV over Christmas. I personally would wait until after Christmas, but then again I can afford the extra cost. Your choice.
