Question 1

Can I watch Sky TV without a satellite dish?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sky Stream uses broadband and a Sky Stream puck, so you don’t need a dish. Sky Glass also streams over Wi‑Fi and has Sky TV built into the television.

Question 2

What is Sky Glass and do I still need a Sky box?

Accepted Answer

Sky Glass is a TV with Sky built in, so there’s no separate Sky Q box or satellite dish. You watch channels and apps over your broadband connection using the Glass interface and voice remote.

Question 3

What is the difference between Sky Q and Sky Stream?

Accepted Answer

Sky Q is a satellite TV service that uses a dish and a Sky Q box, with optional Mini boxes for extra rooms. Sky Stream is Sky’s broadband TV service that uses a small puck and streams everything over the internet.

Question 4

Can I watch Sky Sports without getting Sky TV?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can get Sky Sports through NOW (the streaming service owned by Sky) without a Sky TV contract. It works on smart TVs, phones, consoles and streaming sticks.

Question 5

Does Sky Broadband use the Openreach network?

Yes. Sky Broadband runs over the Openreach network for standard fibre and ADSL lines. In some areas Sky also sells full-fibre services delivered over partner networks.

Question 6

Can I keep my landline number if I switch to Sky?

Accepted Answer
