Having a satellite subscription in the UK makes watching television possible, but it may be very pricey. Spending only on this one item alone might potentially cost you well over £100 a month We investigated how to watch TV for less money.
Now TV
The most popular method for obtaining discounted Sky channels is this one. You have total control over the features you choose. Monthly Hayu reality TV passes will cost £3.99, while an entertainment pass would cost £9.99. Full HD and simultaneous viewing on multiple devices cost an additional £5 per month. You only need to make one payment, regardless of how many passes you obtain.
The Entertainment Pass includes channels like Sky One (and its soon-to-be-replaced Sky Max), Sky Atlantic, Sky Crime, and Sky Comedy. You may also access all of UKTV’s box sets and channels like Gold.
Free Options
The majority of channels are free to air, which means you may continue to watch them for free even if you watch them on Sky or cable.
Freeview requires an external aerial, whereas Freesat requires a satellite connection. As long as you have one of these (and the box/TV to receive the signal), you may enjoy free access to hundreds of channels, including the most well-liked ones, BBC, ITV, and Channel 4, as well as favourites like Dave and The Food Network. You can still record these free channels if you have the correct hardware.
The TV Player service enables you to watch all of these stations for free if all you have is internet access.
Watch TV For Less Money – Terrestrial Channels
These services offer a staggering selection of free TV shows to watch. It really is very big.
With the exception of iPlayer and the others, you may frequently watch shows for free that are also accessible on Netflix and Amazon. On your phone, you may access the stations’ live broadcasts and download shows to watch later.
Watch TV For Less – Pool Resources
Netflix is available to me, but I don’t pay anything for it. I’m only using a friend’s services; I’m not breaking any rules. There are significant savings to be had when using services like Netflix that permit several users to share a single account. By joining forces and using the same accounts, you can all pay for the same service at once.
Free Trials
These can save you a fortune. Every streaming service provides free trials, or as I just did with Amazon Prime, discounted discounts. And because I own a PS5, I received Apple TV for free for six months. See what deals are available and try to save as much money as you can. Just remember to cancel the subscription before it switches to a paid service. Alternatively, use Youtube to watch videos.
