What are the best Sky deals at the moment?
Sky is currently offering a whole host of deals and these change regularly so it’s worth bookmarking this page to keep an eye on updates.
This month we love the Full Fibre broadband which comes in at an affordable £29 per month, but if you’re looking for a new TV deal, we would seriously consider spending £36 per month for Sky Stream, Sky Cinema, Sky TV, and Netflix.
What is Sky Stream?
Sky Stream allows you to watch Sky Entertainment and Netflix on your TV through Wi-Fi – so it completely removes the need for satellite dish installation.
The palm-sized box is available for next-day delivery and works once plugged into any TV.
Just simply plug in and play and you’ll be able to instantly stream over 30,000 shows on your TV.
It offers access to 150 channels and 100,000 hours of aggregated content.
There are two ways to purchase Sky Stream.
Customers can either pay for a 24-month contract or go for a flexible 31-day rolling contract that can be canceled at any time.
At the moment you can pick up Sky Stream, including Sky Entertainment and Netflix for just £26 per month on a 24-month contract, or £29 per month on a 31-day rolling contract.
What is Sky Glass?
Sky Glass is a 4K QLED TV designed to eliminate the need for a satellite dish.
Much like a regular smart TV, Sky Glass can connect directly to the internet to enable the viewing of countless channels.
The device is innovative in the sense that it allows the whole Sky Q experience to be enjoyed over Wi-Fi.
The TV also has a completely redesigned Sky software experience, a built-in soundbar and subwoofer, and three size options (43-, 55-, and 65-inch.)
Sky Glass is available in five unique colours; Ocean Blue, Ceramic White, Racing Green, Dusky Pink, and Anthracite Black.
The TV is available either as a one-off purchase or as part of a Sky Glass contract.
If you choose the first payment option, you’ll spend £699 for the 43-inch version, and £949 for the 55-inch offering.
At the time of writing, the 65-inch model is out of stock, so keep checking back.
Of course, you’ll still have to pay a monthly subscription to watch Sky channels.
The upfront cost means that a Sky Glass package deal is often more appealing and budget-friendly.
Check out the deals above, where we’ve rounded up the best pay-monthly bundles.

What is Sky Q?
Sky Q was once Sky’s premium service, but it’s perhaps not as popular as the platform’s other packages now.
Essentially, Sky Q is a family of services integrated into either a 1TB or 2TB set-top-box with smart TV features and Ultra HD support (for the 2TB version).
Sky also offers a Q Mini box, a device that connects to your main Sky Q box to watch TV in other rooms.
The Sky Q remote included in the box can control both devices via Bluetooth and features a built-in microphone to allow for voice search functionality.
Since the Sky Q main box includes 12 TV tuners, you can simultaneously record up to six channels and share content around the house at the same time.
How much do the Sky Q boxes cost?
The cheapest Sky Q box subscription starts at £31 a month for a 24-month deal, plus there’s a set-up fee of up to £49.
For this, you’ll get the Sky Q 1TB box.
The boxes themselves don’t cost anything – they simply come from Sky and are included in your subscription.
What channels are on Sky Entertainment?
Sky’s Entertainment bundle includes roughly 30 dedicated Sky channels in addition to the Freeview ones.
Arguably the most viewed is Sky Atlantic, being the one where all of HBO’s latest programs can be watched.
Sky One is another channel that has seen a spike in views in recent years, showing programs like Modern Family, In The Long Run, and The Simpsons.
Other entertainment channels include Sky Living, Fox, and Universal, as well as Comedy Central and Gold.
There’s also a whole host of children’s channels so your little ones can catch up on shows such as Dennis and Gnasher, Dragons: The Nine Realms, The Deep, Danger Mouse, and more.
What Channels are on Sky Sports?
Sky has a long history of excellence when it comes to sports channels, and despite competitors such as BT having stepped up their game, Sky’s Sports channel portfolio is still one of the best.
The main sports channel available to Sky premium customers is Sky Sports Main Event, showing all main events across different sports.
Other channels focus on individual sports, with some of the most viewed being Sky Sports Premier League, Sky Sports Cricket, Sky Sports Golf, and Sky Sports F1.
Football fans also get a Sky Sports Football channel, offering a comprehensive number of lower league matches.
Can I watch BT Sport ESPN on Sky?
Yes, you can!
BT Sport ESPN is included in the Sky Sports package.
You can find BT Sport ESPN on Sky Channel 423 if you want to watch it in HD and Channel 876 if, for some reason, you need an SD stream.
If you’re not familiar with this particular channel, BT Sport ESPN originally belonged to US-based sports broadcaster ESPN.
While it was acquired by BT in 2013, the channel continued to mainly focus on coverage of American sports.
Because of this, on BT Sport ESPN, you can follow most Major League Baseball (MLB) and American College sports matches.
The channel also occasionally shows European sports when BT Sport 1, 2, and 3 are covering other matches.
What HD Channels do I get on Sky?
Many HD channels are already available in the basic Sky package.
These include BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Four and BBC News.
CBBC and CBeebies are also available in high definition without the need for further upgrades, together with ITV, 4, 5, NHK World, and RT.
If you want to step up your game and get more HD channels on your new 4K TV, Sky offers an Ultra HD + Dolby Atmos package, and it currently costs nothing for the first three months.
After that, you’ll pay an extra £6 per month.
Sky HD boasts over 40 channels in high definition, including Sky Atlantic, Fox, and many more.
How do I get the best deal on Sky?
Sky periodically promotes sales on their deals, bringing their prices down on particular occasions and festivities throughout the year.
Watch out for sales around Christmas time, Easter, and of course, Black Friday.
If you feel particularly inclined to haggle, Sky also offers a ‘Stay with Sky’ page, where you can speak with an adviser.
Is Sky cheaper than Virgin?
When it comes to standard price per month, Sky’s basic TV package, which also includes Netflix, currently costs £26 per month and offers more than 300 channels.
Virgin is primarily a broadband provider and, therefore, does not have a TV-only package in the UK.
Instead, Virgin offers a Big bundle for £33 per month.
The package features M250 Fibre Broadband, unlimited weekend calls to UK landlines, and over 100 TV channels.
Virgin also offers a Bigger Combo bundle + Sports HD bundle for £69.99 per month.
New customers can score a free Xbox Series S or a £150 bill credit when they sign up – but you’ll have to act fast.
What is Sky’s cheapest package?
Sky offers a range of services, from broadband and TV to their Sky Q streaming services, so it depends on what you’re after, as prices will vary greatly depending on whether or not you want multiple services or just one.
However, from our findings, you can get Sky broadband for as little as £25 a month.
Sky stream packages start at £26 per month including Sky Entertainment and Netflix, then you can purchase additional TV packs as required,
Lastly, Sky Glass starts at £14 a month, allowing you to again build a package that’s specific to your interests and needs so you can get the most out of your money.
What are the best Sky TV deals available now?
There are a few deals and discounts Sky is currently offering, as well as some recurrent deals that are definitely worth considering.
You can find all of the best deals, including those in this guide, on the Sky website.
Sky’s Glass subscriptions are certainly worth considering if you want to secure a TV package and a shiny new screen in one fell swoop.
How much is Sky TV for new customers?
The overall price of your package will depend on your personal preferences, but prices start from £38 per month for Sky Stream, Sky TV, Netflix, and Full Fibre Broadband.
All new customers have to pay a £20 set-up fee, which goes up to £49 for existing customers upgrading to Sky Q.
Of course, the price includes the installation of both broadband and phone lines, as well as the TV box setup.
Do existing Sky customers get better deals?
While Sky typically offers better deals to new customers (often in an attempt to poach them from competitors), the company does have a dedicated page listing discounts for existing customers.
In addition, there’s something else existing customers can do to get better prices; haggling.
We have written a dedicated guide to the art of haggling, but it essentially involves letting your service provider know that you will leave them for a chapter alternative unless they give you a better deal.
We believe this is currently the best way for Sky’s existing customers to save some extra cash.
Sky deals for existing customers
Currently, existing customers can enjoy several deals including discounts on broadband and Sky Sports.
Here are a few of our favourite deals existing customers can snap up today:
- 300Mb/s Full Fibre Broadband, £26 per month – upgrade here
- Sky Sports, £22 per month – upgrade here
- Sky Cinema, £10 per month – upgrade here
- TNT Sports, £30 per month – upgrade here
Is Netflix free on Sky?
Netflix Basic is included in all of Sky’s TV packages.
With the basic subscription option, you can watch films and TV shows on a single screen and not in HD.
If you do want HD, however, you can purchase the Sky HD pack to watch Netflix in HD (Netflix Standard) or the Sky Ultra HD pack to watch Netflix in Ultra HD (Netflix Premium).
If you already have a Netflix subscription, you can easily connect your account to retain your library and profiles.
Can you still get Sky+?
For new customers, Sky+ is no longer available as Sky Q replaced the Sky+ service in 2016.
However, existing customers can continue to use the box.
