Sky urges Brits to act fast as 'lowest price' TV, Netflix and broadband sale ends today
Sky urges Brits to act fast as 'lowest price' TV, Netflix and broadband sale ends today
Sky is calling time on the latest sale that's reduced its flagship TV and Full Fibre 300 broadband bundles to their cheapest price ever
Brits can secure Sky's cheapest ever TV and broadband bundles if they're fast
Sky shoppers are being urged to act fast to avoid missing out on its latest round of TV and broadband deals. The provider recently brought back a popular TV and broadband bundle that's seen prices return to their 'lowest ever', with the Essential TV and Full Fibre 300 broadband bundle back to £35 per month and offering 300Mbps fibre broadband for the price of 150Mbps.
However, Sky has now posted a warning on its website confirming the deal ends at 11.59pm today (June 18). Also coming to an end is the reduced Ultimate TV and Full Fibre 300 broadband bundle, which provides more than 35 extra channels for £39.
Usually, Sky's Full Fibre 300 costs £29 per month without any TV access, but the latest deals also grant access to more than 100 channels including Sky Atlantic, Sky Sports News, and major free-to-air channels like BBC, ITV and Channel 4. The combined bundles also include free Netflix and Discovery+ subscriptions, with the option to add Sky Cinema and Sky Sports for an additional £10 and £20 respectively.
All of this is delivered via Sky Stream, the brand's new gadget that provides TV and streaming access through WiFi instead of a traditional satellite dish. Sky is now among the providers to roll out the new One Touch Switch scheme, which means customers don't have to contact their existing broadband provider to complete the switch as Sky will do the legwork, reports the Mirror.
Sky's Essential TV and broadband bundle
£35 per month
Sky Get the deal here Product Description
Sky's Essential TV and broadband bundle is currently £35 per month and comes with hundreds of channels plus 300Mbps broadband.
To secure the lower prices, customers are required to agree to a 24-month plan. Sky states that the cost of its TV and broadband plans 'may change' during this term, which traditionally includes an annual price increase in April common among many firms.
Sky earlier this year announced a hike of 6.2% in its TV and broadband service charges, making it probable that a similar rise could occur in April 2026. Nonetheless, Sky distinguishes itself by allowing users to end their contracts early if a price rise is announced.
Sky's latest deals are competing directly with Virgin's Bigger Combo bundle, offering more than 200 channels and 362Mbps fibre broadband for £34.99. While this is one penny less than Sky and roughly 60Mbps faster, it lacks access to Sky Atlantic or Netflix, which may be essential for some users.

Competition also comes from BT and EE's Big Entertainment and Full Fibre 300 plan, which starts at £48.99 per month for the first six months before it jumps to the standard rate of £63.99, eventually costing more than £600 extra compared to Sky. In terms of user feedback, Sky customers have been sharing their positive experiences on Trustpilot.
One five-star review says: "Sky Stream is a game changer. Switched a few weeks back and it's the best decision I've ever made. Installation takes care of itself, the remote even auto tunes itself to the TV. The best part is the ability to have a single charge for all your streaming subscriptions."

One less enthusiastic member says: "I wasn't happy with the service provided by Sky, phoned up to change my deal and was passed around like a parcel. Eventually, I got to speak to someone who knew what they were doing. I am happy my issue was finally resolved but took a lot of work."
While another happy customer says: "I've been with lots of companies to get my TV and internet, but the best service I have received out of them all is Sky. We did change to other companies because of the price but always go back to Sky."

Millions of Brits risk losing over £500 from bank account
According to reports, millions of Brits are flushing away over £500 a year by leaving their cash rotting in low-interest 'zombie' bank accounts. New research reveals more than half of UK savers are hoarding their hard-earned cash in zero-interest current accounts. The research, by Opinium for Hargreaves Lansdown, found 56 per cent of savers are putting money in accounts that give them absolutely nothing back – a 20 per cent rise from last year. Oil prices begin to stabilise — Hargreaves Lansdown (@HLInvest) June 26, 2025 67 per cent of 18–34-year-olds admit to stashing savings in current accounts, rather than moving them to proper savings pots. 81 per cent of higher-rate taxpayers and 83 per cent of investors are also making the same mistake. £297bn is currently held in accounts earning no interest – up by about a fifth in a year. £3,365 is the average amount held in current accounts, rising to £10,180 for the highest earners. £114 is what the average saver loses in spending power after one year at 3.5% inflation, or £344 for higher earners. Researchers calculated that if you had the average of £3,365 savings in a current account, and inflation was running at 3.5%, after a year, your money would have the same buying power as £3,251 today – so it would have lost £114 of spending power. But if you moved the cash to a competitive easy-access account, you could earn a return that's higher than inflation. Recommended reading: Sarah Coles, personal finance boss at Hargreaves Lansdown, said: 'You don't have to transfer cash from another account in order to spend it, you just spend as normal – and find yourself eating away at your savings." Ms Coles said: 'With inflation around 3.5%, a household holding £3,365 in a zero-interest account would lose £114 in spending power in just one year.' Those sitting on £10,180 would lose £344 annually – and over five years, £3,365 could shrink by £532. She added: 'These sites let you track everything in one place – and snap up the best rates without drowning in paperwork."
