What "getting Sky Q" actually involves

• Dish installation: required, usually with a scheduled engineer visit.
• Sky Q box: a cost on top of the subscription, sometimes upfront, sometimes rolled into the contract.
• Contract term: typically a fixed commitment, not month-to-month.
• Monthly subscription: the headline price, before any of the above is added in.

The advertised monthly price is only part of what "getting Sky Q" actually costs once installation and hardware are factored in.
