Can I have Sky TV installed before my internet?

While it is possible for a Sky engineer to install your TV services before your broadband is live they will not be able to check that all of the services in your new installation are working properly without internet. To avoid having to book a second appointment, we would recommend scheduling the TV installation after your broadband activation, especially as you get access to your Sky TV channels immediately through the streaming service Sky Go.
