The following channels are all seemingly set to vanish – but they are not getting the axe from Sky Q boxes.
Instead, they are part of a new revamp scheme which aims to give the service a fresh look.
From Friday June 6 Sky Romance is set to go forever – now renamed to a different title.
The beloved channel 302 will go by SuperheroHD, which is said to be a temporary change.
And on Saturday June 7, Sky Comedy HD will also be saying goodbye.
Taking its place on channel 308, will be PitchPerfectHD.
And some channels have already been renamed.
They were altered on June 2.
Sky Fairytale on channels 306/850 was renamed to Sky Family on Monday June 2, reverting back from a temporary change.
Sky Karate Kid also had its name changed on Monday June 2, again the channel reverted from a temporary change.
Found on channels 307/851, it is now called Sky Action.
Sky Pride on channel 310 also reverted its name from a temporary change.
It has now been given the name Sky Drama HD.
Meanwhile, That’s Pride on channel 360 has now been named That’s Dance.
One additional heartbreaking TV closure will see ITVBe shut down on June 9.
What are Sky’s early termination fees?
SKY TV customers will incur an early termination fee if they choose to cancel their contract before the end of the agreed minimum term.
The amount you’re charged depends on:
- How long is left of your minimum term from the date your subscriptions end, calculated in days
- The days you have already been billed for in advance
- The products you subscribe to, the price you pay for them and when your subscriptions end
For Sky TV, early termination charges range from £14.00 to £42.89 per month, depending on the specific package.
For instance, if you cancel a standard Sky TV package priced at £33.82 per month with 12 months remaining on a 24-month contract, you would be required to pay the remaining 12 months’ fees in one lump sum.
This would result in a total early termination fee of £405.84.
The beloved channel will be rebranded as ITV Quiz.
Those looking for any of their favourite channels named here need to make sure they’re aware of these new names.
If you’re looking for a new Sky deal, customers can get Sky Stream & Essential TV for just £15/month.
The company is also giving Sky customers an upgrade for popular TV app filled with top movies.
