Sky has confirmed plans to increase the cost of its satellite, broadband and home phone plans for millions of customers across the UK from April 1, 2021. Prices could increase by as much as £72 a year, although Sky claims most customers will only see rises of around £3 a month, or roughly £36 a year. As you might expect, the change in your Sky bill depends entirely on what products you’re paying for and when you signed-up.
