TV upgrade from variety
I am currently on Sky Variety (a very old package) and have multiroom (with no box to actually use in another room).
Called to request a box and they want to sign me up to Signature including multiroom and Cinema (though I'm not a big film watcher). This would be cheaper than what I'm currently paying but signs me up to another 18 month contract.
Is Signature worth it and will I get the same channels? Any pitfalls to be mindful of?
Thanks in advance

Hi @Kaz+W
Sky Signature is the main base package currently bundled with Netflix for Approx £31.
Cinema and Multiroom are at extra charge as is Sky Sports.
Signature includes all the Entertainment channels and BoxSets but only in SD apart from the free to air channels. HD and UHD are extra charges.

Not really, other than the 18 month term. Remember it's not a fixed price - it will increase every April.

Signature includes Box Sets, which Variety doesn't.
I'm not sure whether Variety included the Kids channels, which Signature doesn’t.

Hi @Kaz+W
Do you have a 4K TV & watch in UHD
Multiroom with the old packages used to also enable you to watch in UHD. If this is something you use you would need to make sure the new packages include both the HD & UHD add ons
