Sky launches 'lowest price yet' on Stream and Superfast Broadband package in latest April price drop

Sky has launched its cheapest price yet on its Sky Stream, Netflix and Superfast Broadband package offering a saving of more than £300.

Sky Stream gives customers the perks of a full TV line-up without having to have a satellite dish as everything can be accessed from the Stream Box. Users can also watch live television, boxsets, and sports in areas with a low TV signal.

This April the provider has slashed the price from an original £43 a month to £39 for 18 months in a saving worth £4 a month (or £72 across the whole plan). It may seem like a small discount but customers who buy the deal will save £324 in total compared to those who buy the features separately.

The now £39 a month package includes Sky's Entertainment and Netflix bundle (with access to 150 channels) and Sky's Superfast Broadband, with download speeds of 59Mb/s. Which works out a lot cheaper than buying the two bundles separately.

On its own the Sky Stream Entertainment and Netflix bundle costs £26 a month, and its Superfast Broadband deal starts from £28, which together comes to £54 a month for the same features. Costing the average user £18 extra a month, or £324 over the course of an 18 month plan.

Also included in the deal is a basic Netflix plan for one device, but extra devices can be added to the package for an additional cost. The Netflix standard plan (for two devices) costs an extra £4 and the Netflix Premium costs an extra £8 (for four devices). Despite the extra charges for the additional device accounts, it still works out as a cheaper way to use Netflix.

A Netflix Premium account bought directly through the UK site currently costs £15.99 as opposed to Sky's £8 price. There's also a small saving on the Standard plan, which costs 10.99 on Netflix compared to the £4 additional charge on the Sky Stream bundle.

Customers should be aware that there is an additional £39.95 set-up fee on the package, which brings the total price to £741.95 over the course of the total 18 months.
