Sky Broadband

Not sure if this is the right place to post. Mods please move if so.
I wonder how all you Sky BBand subscribers are doing, and how you rate the service.
I currently pay PIPEX a fair whack but have never had an evening (when I use my home connection) drop out. I think this is very good.
I am tempted by the sky offer on price basis, but don't want to live with an inferior service, which I have a free stereotype opinion of SKY, rightly or wrongly.

How much are you paying at moment?

[jmsjabb]

Around £24 a month, and that is uncapped 1Mb.
Not the cheapest deal, but a very good service.

Remember that Sky have a history of offering free services only to impose a charge later.

Do they?
Well apart from the basic TV offering which went premium when they had to buy content from someone other than FOX Studios and Sports spending jumped through the roof so discounting the content packages not sure what else there is.

SKY D.. got cheaper
SKY+... got cheaper
Multiroom.. got cheaper
SKY HD.. no doubt will get cheaper
SKY Gnome.. no idea
SKY Broadband.. Too early to tell especially given the mix of BT Wholesale products and SKY LLU products but the broadband trend is downwards.
