How Much Money Can You Really Save by Switching From Sky to IPTV in 2026?

Here is a question worth asking yourself right now. How much are you actually spending on TV every single month? For most UK households the answer is painful. Sky TV, Virgin Media, BT Sport, Netflix on top, and Amazon Prime is some platform that charges very high prices. In 2026 thousands of UK families have done the math and made the switch to IPTV. What they found changed everything about how they watch TV. In this guide you will know the detailed overview about your TV savings. 

What Sky TV Is Costing You Right Now?

A standard Sky TV package in 2026 sits between £65 and £95 per month. Add Sky Sports, and that goes up by another £20 to £30. A typical UK household is easily spending £100 to £130 every single month just to watch television.

Multiply that by twelve months and you are looking at somewhere between £1,200 and £1,560 leaving your bank account every year. Just for TV. And every April Sky puts the prices up again.

What IPTV Actually Costs?

This is where the numbers become genuinely shocking.

At Firestick Packages UK, our monthly package starts at just £20. But our most popular option is the annual package, which costs only £60 for the entire year. Break that down and you are paying just £5 per month.

For £5 a month you get 30,000 live channels, all Sky Sports and BT Sport channels included, 50,000 movies and TV shows, Netflix and Amazon Prime content, 4K Ultra HD quality, zero buffering, international channels from dozens of countries, and 24/7 customer support. You did not need to prepare any big contracts. If you want to finish your streaming, you will be refunded. 

The Real Numbers Side by Side

Sky TV with sports is around £1,200 per year

Firestick Packages UK annual plan: £60 per year

You save over £1,100 every single year. That is a family holiday. That is a new laptop. That is simply yours to keep instead of handing it over to Sky every month. You can spend this money on any big expenses you want. 

You Also Get More Not Less

Here is what surprises most people after they switch. They do not just save money. They actually get more content than they ever had with any other streaming service. More channels, more sports, more movies, more international content, and the freedom to watch on any device anywhere in the house.

With Sky you pay more and still miss things. With IPTV on your Fire Stick, you pay almost nothing and get everything.

Is the Switch Complicated?

Not at all. Setting up IPTV on your Amazon Firestick takes less than five minutes. You plug in your FireStick, connect to your home WiFi, and our support team on WhatsApp walks you through every single step. Most customers are watching their first channel within ten minutes of contacting us.

There is no engineer visit. No waiting around. No confusing setup process. Just plug in, follow the steps, and start streaming.

Final Verdict

The math simply does not lie. Paying over £1,000 a year for Sky TV in 2026 when you can get more channels, better quality, and full sports coverage for just £60 a year makes no sense at all. Thousands of UK families have already made the switch and are wondering why they did not do it sooner. Now it is your turn.
