"Our lowest price is back," Sky declares on its online store as it unleashes a slew of deals across its full-fibre broadband and TV packages. The British broadcaster has returned Black Friday-like savings to its Ultimate TV & Full Fibre 300, and Essential TV & Full Fibre 300 plans.
Both of these deals ship with a Sky Stream box — the latest set-top box released by the UK company — that ditches the traditional satellite dish in favour of a Wi-Fi connection. That means there's no need to book an appointment with an engineer to affix a cumbersome dish to the outside of your home, you can place the set-top box anywhere in your home with a decent wireless connection. All of the usual features you've come to expect from Sky TV — like the ability to pause and rewind live television, pause in one room and resume in another, and search for shows, films, sports and actors with your voice — are baked into Sky Stream.
Both arrive with Full Fibre 300, which is available in 55% of UK homes, following the latest tranche of upgrades from Openreach. Expect download speeds between 298 – 314 Mbps, with a minimum guaranteed speed of 200Mbps. With those speeds, roughly 4.5x faster than the average household broadband connection in the UK, it'll take just 39 seconds to download a feature-length film in HD.
Essential TV also offers a selection of 100 live television channels streamed via a Wi-Fi connection, including popular free-to-air channels like BBC, ITV, Channel 5, Channel 5, Sky Arts, and of course, GB News. It also includes access to Sky Atlantic, which is where you'll stream award-winning boxsets from US network HBO, such as The White Lotus, The Last Of Us,Chernobyl, Euphoria, House of the Dragon, and Succession.
Sky Stream + Ultimate TV + Netflix + Full Fibre 300 returns to "lowest price"
With no satellite dish required and next-day delivery included at no extra cost, you could be watching 140 live channels, hundreds of award-winning boxsets from HBO, Discovery+, and Sky Originals, and everything on Netflix via a Wi-Fi connection this time tomorrow. Full Fibre 300 unlocks speeds roughly 4.5x faster than the average UK home broadband for speedy streaming and buffer-free video calls
Sky Stream + Essential TV + Netflix + Full Fibre 300 returns to "lowest price"
If you're only looking to stream the latest season of The Last Of Us, House of the Dragon, The White Lotus, or Sex And The City follow-up And Just Like That, this affordable bundle unlocks everything on Sky Atlantic, as well as a Netflix Standard with Ads plan worth £5.99 a month and a Discovery+ plan worth £3.99 a month. Sky Broadband's Full Fibre 300 unlocks full-fibre speeds throughout the home, with a money-back guarantee on its minimum download speeds
What's missing from this lower-cost bundle? Aside from Sky Atlantic, you'll lose out on all other Sky-branded channels found in the Ultimate TV bundle, which costs £22 a month. That means you'll need to upgrade to stream anything on Sky Max, Sky Documentaries, Sky Comedy, Sky History, or Sky Witness.
All Sky TV packages arrive with a Netflix Standard with Ads subscription (usually £5.99 a month) included, which can be used to stream exclusive shows like Stranger Things, Squid Game, Sirens, Wednesday, Bridgerton, as well as original films, like Red Notice, Don't Look Up, Carry-On, Bird Box, and The Gray Man, to name just a few. These can be watched on Sky Stream, or you can sign-in to Netflix apps on your iPhone, iPad, Android phones, PC, and more.
Essential TV & Full Fibre 300 costs £35 a month — a return to its most affordable price. Meanwhile Ultimate TV & Full Fibre 300 costs £39 a month.
Sky usually charges the same price for its Full Fibre 150 when paired with the same TV package, so you'll unlock double the full-fibre broadband speeds at no extra cost. But that's not the only lowest price to return to the Sky Store.
You can build your Sky Stream bundle with two different starting points, the affordable Essential TV with a more limited selection of channels — but access to on-demand shows like Game Of Thrones, Euphoria, The White Lotus, Band of Brothers, The Day of the Jackal, The Wire, and more, or the comprehensive Ultimate TV bundle with more satellite channels via Wi-Fi, including MTV, Comedy Central, and many more

Sky has unleashed a slew of savings across its broadband lineup — returning these popular full-fibre plans to its "lowest ever" prices.
And the timing couldn't be better.
Last month, the UK's biggest broadband providers increased monthly bills for millions of customers.
Brands like BT, EE, Sky, Vodafone, Virgin Media, Plusnet, and others all hiked costs between £2 - £3.50 extra or raise subscriptions between 4.5 - 7.5%. The exact price rise that applies to your broadband bills will depend on the supplier and the date you signed up. We've got a comprehensive rundown of the exact price rise coming to BT, Sky, TalkTalk, Plusnet, and EE broadband customers.
But there's a chance that you — and millions of others — do not have to put up with these latest price hikes.
According to figures from Ofcom, some 7.4 million UK households are currently out of contract and could switch to a new subscription with no repercussions. Broadband suppliers regularly keep their best deals for new subscribers, with loyalty from existing subscribers rarely rewarded.
Openreach maintains a vast underground network of broadband cables that connects 99% of all UK homes. These fibre-optic cables are used by more than 650 individual brands, including the likes of Sky, BT, Vodafone, TalkTalk, EE, Plusnet, and others. If you're with any of these providers, you can switch to another Openreach-powered supplier and enjoy the same top speeds.
The clock is ticking on the lowest-ever price for Sky Broadband's Full Fibre 300 plan, which unlocks average speeds of 300Mbps — more than fast enough to stream in 4K Ultra HD, make video calls, and back-up photos to the cloud

Sky has slashed its Full Fibre 150 broadband package to £26 a month, which is a return to its "lowest price".
For that, you'll benefit from average download speeds between 151 –152Mbps, with a guaranteed minimum of 100Mbps. If Sky Broadband fails to meet that threshold for 3 consecutive days, you'll be able to claim your money back.
With those speeds, roughly 2x faster than the average UK household broadband connection, it'll take just 1 minute and 21 seconds to download a feature-length film in HD. That should be plenty fast enough to watch the latest releases from Netflix, stream live television on Sky Stream, and back-up your photos, make video calls, and stream music on all of the other devices in your home.
But before you head to the Sky Store online or in your local high street — GB News readers can save an extra £12 a year on Sky's "lowest price" broadband bundle. Withour link, you can secure the same speeds from the Sky Store for £25 per month.

Sky Broadband is offering its Full Fibre 150 plan for £26 a month — the "lowest price" for these speeds. But we can save you an extra £12 a year on this record-breakingly low price. Unlock the same full-fibre speeds for just £25 a month with our link. You'll also benefit from a 100Mbps minimum guarantee speed.
That price will be locked-in for the duration of your contract, aside from the usual annual price rises. However, Sky is one of the only broadband providers in the UK that allows its subscribers to walk away penalty-free if they're unhappy with the yearly price hike.
Elsewhere, Sky Broadband's Full Fibre 300 has also returned to its "lowest price" at £28 per month. Or, you can upgrade to Sky Broadband's Full Fibre 500 — with a guaranteed minimum download speed of an eye-watering 400Mbps and ability to download a HD movie in 23 seconds — for £31 per month.
