Sky TV packages come in all shapes and sizes; let us find the best bundle deal for you.
Every week we take a look at the latest Sky TV packages, deals and special offers to make sure that you’re getting the very best prices when you decide to sign up! So if you’re trying to decide which Sky TV offer is for you, what a Sky Q box is and if you can afford it or even if you should be getting one in the first place – you’re in the right place!
As you scroll down the page, we’ll discuss the latest Sky TV packages, offers and any special deals and walk you through the larger bundles with the optional extras like Sky Cinema and Sky Sports.
This is a great time to sign up as Sky has just reduced two of its best bundles by knocking £7 off the monthly fee, meaning you’re saving £126 over the course of the contract.
The Floyd Mayweather v Conor McGregor fight is a pay-per-view Sky Sports Box Office event in the UK. As such, you’ll need to be an existing Sky TV customer and all set up by Saturday night August 26 at midnight.
You can order access to the fight for £19.95 / €24.95 over on this Sky Sports Box Office page. Or, if you’re of the mind that it’ll be all over very quickly, just pop into a pub showing it at midnight on Saturday.
As things stand today, you’ll first need to select one of the top three Sky TV packages below then add additional channel bundles via the options on Sky’s website if you want sports etc. There’s no bespoke Sky Sports package by default at the moment, but you can add it after selecting the initial bundle, by just scrolling down and looking for the Sky Sports offers to bolt-on.
Yes! Actually, all of these Sky TV packages include a Sky Q box by default if you’re signing up as a new customer. When choosing your Sky TV package from the list of offers below, you’ll be presented with two Sky Q deals to choose from.
The default Sky Q box is the 1TB option with a one-off £20 setup cost. Opt for the 2TB Sky Q box though and that setup cost rises to a rather steep £199. That’s pretty harsh to be honest, although the monthly prices don’t change, so it is just the one-off cost to consider.
Alternatively, you can get the 2TB Sky Q box for £65 instead if you add Sky Q Multiscreen to your bundle for £12 a month. We’d get your channels sorted first, then maybe scroll back up to the Sky Q offers’ section once you have a better idea of the overall cost, which is handily updated throughout at the top of the screen.
In addition to double the storage (that’s up to 1000 hours in standard definition) of the standard Sky Q box, the 2TB Sky Q deal comes with a few extra benefits. Such as being able to record six shows at once instead of three, while watching a seventh. You also get the fancier Sky Q Touch remote control, an extra tablet allowance, and the all-important party piece – you can enjoy select channels in Ultra HD. Which is great if you’ve recently taken advantage of a cheap 4K TV deal.
When you click through to any of the bundles above, you’ll be offered multiple extras to add to your Sky package as you go. Everything from bigger Sky Q boxes, Sky Sports subscriptions, Sky Cinema, broadband and so on.
Note: If you’re clicking through to Sky from the Bolt-on sections below, rather than the contracts above, it may appear that the new cheaper rates aren’t available for the main contract, but click the package you want and you should see the discounted rate at the top of the page and at checkout.
With these Sky Sports bundles you get the following Sky Sports channels: Sky Sports Premier league, Sky Sports Football, Sky Sports F1, Sky Sports Cricket, Sky Sports Golf, Sky Sports Action, Sky Sports Arena and Sky Sports Main Event (for the world’s biggest sporting events) .
You can get slightly cheaper options if you opt for fewer sports channels (getting just Sky Sports is £18 a month) , or commit to an 18-month signup for the same package. Before checkout, you can also add a HD upgrade for the Sports channels for £6 a month.
To find the ‘no contract’ £27.50 a month offer, when presented with the two options, select ‘Choose your sports channels’ on the left then scroll down to the ‘Complete Sports Pack.’ Or, if you’re happy to have all the Sky Sports channels for 18 months, just choose the £20 a month option on the right.
There are two Unlimited options (again, speeds depend on your postcode) . We were offered prices from £23.99 per month for the slower tier and deals for the faster speeds started at £30.99 per month. As things stand, prices are discounted for the first 12 months, with a modest bump for the remaining six.
Game of Thrones season 7 is currently broadcast on Sky Atlantic, a channel that comes with all of the Sky TV deals mentioned on this page. You can also watch it after the original broadcast on the Sky Atlantic catch up channel that’s include with all packages. You can also use the Boxsets Sky package to catch up on all the past seasons too.
With all packages you get at least the standard free to air HD channels. To be honest you also get a fair few of these with standard Freeview HD.
You’ll need to splash out on the £38 a month ‘Box Sets bundle’ in order to get the flashier HD channels. Once you do though, you’ll get access to the following channels as well:
