UK, Ireland / UK Sky TV in Poland [39]
Hi Adam,
I can't comment about the current cost of installation of a dish that will allow Sky coverage in Lublin.
I too, live in Lublin and when I moved here in 2013, I investigated this and was told that a large dish, at least 1.8m, was required.
Without land on which to erect a dish this size, it is a difficult proposition.
In addition, if you are going to be living in Lublin on an income generated in Polish zloty you may find that the monthly Sky subscription is too expensive (60gbp = 325zl).
However there are various internet based alternatives:
You can watch Sky on the web if you have access to a UK Sky account and install a UK VPN link on your computer in Poland, using SkyGo ( I think it's called). This is what I did when I first arrived here, and used my dad's UK Sky account.
The alternatives are using websites such as filmon.com for most UK live terrestrial tv and freeview programs, although in the last week BBC1 England has become unavailable.
If it's sport you want, websites such as neolive.net give access. Films/Series: watchseriesfree.to and movies: watchfree.to
The downside of all web based access is that are occasional problems with buffering and often you have to navigate various pop-up ads before you get to the stream you want.
If you don't mind Polish commetary, you can also subscribe to various Polish satellite services which will give a wide coverage of English Premier league games.....I don't know much about this.
