Sky Q Upgrade - Can I keep watching Sky+ HD until Q box installed?

[r0bwt191]

Looking at my bills it seems that all my Sky+ based subsrciptions, including multiroom, end on 3rd of November... however, the engineer visit for Sky Q is not until the 14th of November.

Does this mean I will lose access to multiroom and the other terminated legacy subscriptions on the 3rd and I won't regain access till the 14th after Q is installed?

Hi @r0bwt191   Why is your Sky+ subscription ending before Sky Q is installed? Is that at your request? 

[r0bwt191]

No, never even considered it might be an issue.

I have had Sky+ for many years now and had several services/packages that are no longer available but were marked legacy.

It was explained that by doing the upgrade I would need to move onto the newer packages/re-contract for some which I understand and don't have a problem with, but I was just looking at the "My Bills" area and noticed that several items from my current Sky+ subscription (including multiroom) appear to be paid up to 3rd November and then end.

Having looked in the billing section again, maybe the information is just confusing as it shows all my new subscriptions starting on 10th October which is when I placed the order.

This is the bit that has me concerned though:

Changes to your Sky portfolio

The following subscriptions have been cancelled, access to content will continue until your subscription period ends:

• Sky Go Extra on 03/11
• Sky Multiscreen (Legacy) on 03/11
• Sky Multiscreen (Legacy) on 03/11
• Sky+ Subscription on 03/11

I won't be popular if the Sky+ boxes in the other rooms stop working on the 3rd!!

HI,

Did you ever get an answer to this question. I ask because I am currently in exactly the same boat. I am being shown that multiroom (legacy) will end but its not showing that a new multiroom subscription will start with the new Sky Q subscription.
