Joining Sky TV

Does anyone know of any good deals for Sky Q right now? I’m just needing Sky Q ideally with the entertainment pack plus Netflix and possibly an extra box. I don’t want Sky Stream. 

I noticed that TopCashback and Quidco only offer cashback if you go for Sky Q Lite with broadband but I don’t want broadband I just need the TV. 

I noticed that Lloyds Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland both give £50 cashback for joining Sky TV after paying your second direct debit. Is this the best deal out there?

    Why do you need Sky Q? Are there any specific channels you watch?

    I'm aware that if you know someone who has sky tv and they recommend you. Both of you will receive £125 referral fee. I'd offer to refer you but I'm sure you know someone who's a relative or friend who could benefit from that.

    Apparently channels like Clubland etc aren’t available on Sky Stream and I don’t think that Sky Stream is good enough yet to take over from Sky Q. Also when the internet goes down then the TV won’t go down and Sky Q still allows you to record and fast forward adverts.

    Thank you. I’ll double check with a friend that has sky.

    I had a look and it’s only available for Sky Stream, Sky Glass, Sky Broadband and Sky Mobile. Thanks anyway. 
  • I don't blame you not wanting Sky Stream.  I've just left it after my 18 month minimum contract.  Stream is slow and clunky, and the ad-skipping service is abysmal and expensive.

    Really pushing Stream now; had an unsolicited call from them on Wednesday trying to "upsell" me from a 1TB Q box. Didn't seem to know that I was contracted until Dec.25 but "assured" me that all my discounts would carry over....Hmmm

    Why would you downgrade from Q to Stream?

    Personally I wouldn't ...but they must be getting some successful conversions especially if they sell their broadband offering in parallel.
