If you cancel you have to return your Sky Q boxes as they are only loaned, so "what's free" is irrelevant.

So If i cancel Sports, HD, Entertainment i'd have to return my box?

Hi @tina211 

There is a Sky Essentials pack which gives basic free to air channels.

However without this you need the Sky Q Signature to maintain your Q subscription.

You can purchase a freesat 4K box...

Note that the list price of Essentials is rather high for what it is (given that the channels themselves are free-to-air and Sky is just charging for Q box functionality) so negotiation might be advisable.
