Well sky should be reducing their price if they are losing content and functions not asking for us to pay more for less.

An of course, Sky have their Stream customers over a barrel (at least those on a 24 month contract).  They can increase prices as and when  they want and by however much they want, with no option for customers to cancel penalty free.  Although, I think you may have an argument if the service has significantly changed.  

There used to be a limit stated in the Stream T&C's of not higher that 10% or CPI  and once/year.  This now appears to have been removed.

I left this morning. I had been in their Stream Essential package. I upgraded to Ultimate which triggered a new 24 month contract with a new 31 day cool off period. Upgrading terminated my original contract, and as they couldn't put me back on my old contracted prices they gave me an instant no-charge cancellation. Did try to get me to agree to 31 day notice cancellation, but I gave a firm no.

@Timelord2018 no idea about that! 
it's just bizzare. If I want to watch something without adds which are paid for, I have to ignore it on the continue watching rail. 
search and find it on sky platform and then play it from there. 

what a mess that is.

With poor quality and it feels like more adverts than actual programming.

Hi

Have you added your ee tnt sports and then the free hbo from sky using the same email address? I am logged in to hbo max for tnt from ee and that works, I am hoping to add the free hbo from sky, but when I logged in with same email it says, are you sure, you may he charged twice as its linked to another (ee) billing contract. Thanks

Any one else started to watch something on hbo through sky stream and then the whole app freezes .the only way I can get rid of it is to unplug my stream box and reboot?

[Matt7575]

If i upgrade to the £5 with  no-ads do I get TNT sports? Because it was a massive monthly subscription before.

[r0cketscience]

You get what's reflected in your sky subscription so if you have sky sports you get tnt sports therefore you get tnt sports on hbo. 

if you check the tv section of your my sky app it shows you what products you have. 

adding premium to your hbo sub won't change if you get TNT sports or not.

Presumably there's no way of deactivating this awful app so we can go back to watching HBO content on Sky Comedy and Sky Atlantic?

[Matt7575]

Ok thanks. Didnt know because never subscribed to TNT sports with it being  £30pm. Will definitely give it try next season..

My sky puck locks up when I try to stream using hbo app.. consistently.. the puck app needs an update.. basically unusable  at this point

This just gets better and better... I took out Now TV with HBO Max and Ultraboost.... HBO Max shows that state 4k UHD HDR Dolby Atmos on their Now TV details page are playing as SDR 5.1. Why is this so difficult? 

[badgerz]

They could charge us less......nice we are losing 15 percent of our programmes and being charged a fee for the privilege 

[POckelford]

To be honest, the way Sky have handled this if be tempted to quit Sky\Now altogether and just get HBO Max. Easy for me as I don't watch sports, and can live without Sky Comedy etc.

[badgerz]

Yes they took all out decent 4k movie and shows , put them on hboax , make us pay to watch them the way we did yesterday ...and have the nerve to call it free
