Sky q to sky stream mid contract

Sorry I know this has probably been done to death but is it easy or allowed to switch to Sky q to sky stream mid contract? Or do you have to wait until contract expiry? Is it an easy process if allowed? Thanks

Hi @EK76367 

 

Yes sky allow a Q to stream switch but likely tie you in to a new minimum term for Stream. Note there are differences in channels and functionality so make sure you do your research.

You can change but also bear in mind that if you do that you will have two bills to pay, your last bill for your sky q, and your first sky stream bill and they will both come out on day and there are some channels that are on q that are not on stream, eg talking pictures

As @mikealanr @mentions, you will be able to do this and it will start a new contract period.

 

Have a read and watch the videos within the this Sky Stream FAQ.

It covers a lot of what Sky Stream is, billing, broadband requirements, channels and using around the home etc.
