Not sure that is correct as confusingly there are two essential packages via Sky, one via Glass and Stream services:
And one via Sky Q (and not Sky+) which gives you access to the free channels only so the likes of Sky Atlantic is not part of it.

Hi,my contract has just ended and I'm receiving no signal for my Freesat box. The Sky engineers cut my original Freesat capable to install there own so in answer to you question you're screwed.

@Gazawest unless you had Sky Q (you've posted in the Sky+ forum) the Sky cables can be used for a Freesat box.
If you had Sky Q, the LNB on the arm of your dish would have been changed for a wide band device which isn't compatible with standard Freesat boxes. It would be compatible, however, with a 4K Freesat box. You would need to get the LNB changed for non-4K Freesat boxes.
