Currently my 2 main packages are Sky Signature and Sky Sports F1.
I am thinking of cutting Signature to reduce costs, but have a few questions please:
1. Can i still use all recording features with free channels?
2. Can i still access catch up and box sets from free channels, such as BBC?
On my bill i currectly have:
Sky Sports HD Free (-£6)
Sky HD (£9)
UHD (£4)
If i cancel Sky HD and UHD:
1. Can i still watch free channels in HD?
2. Will it effect me watching SKY F1 in HD now or in the future?
3. Are apps effected by this? (will Disney+ still be in UHD)
Thank you.

@MrWedgy Sky Signature is the minimum base package. Cancelling that ends your Sky subscription and the Sky Q boxes would need returning to Sky.
You can cancel HD and UHD and would still receive the free HD channels and F1 in HD.

That is your first post so you need to explain what you mean. By the way, this is a customer helps customer forum and you aren’t contacting Sky Customer Services on here.

You can that by contacting Sky and either:
1) Reduce your subscriptions, i.e. remove UHD/HD etc. ('Free' channels will maintain HD and I believe HD in sports)
2) Recontract - get discounts but requires 2 years commitment
