Hello,

I was wondering if someone could advise me please.

I have an existing Sky Tv Package that includes basic channels, sports & movies and would just like to add broadband and not the phone calls.

I have been told that Sky Broadband is free to existing customers but from looking on the site it doesn't seem that it is. I have read about a £30 installation fee.

Can anyone confirm that Broadband is free for existing sky customers please.

It's only free if you are on a Sky LLU exchange.
Check on www.samknows.com, then exchange search, LLU Operator Presence.
And even if you can get it, it's a miserable capped 2MBps speed and a 2GB data allowance. To get a decent speed/allowance you have to pay an extra fiver. Oh, and you have to take Sky Talk with it.
In other words, a classic bait and switch tactic.

Thanks for your replies.

I looked for an LLU operator presence for Sky and it was enabled in March 2007.

It sounds as though i may be better off getting my broadband with someone else then and keeping my Sky Tv as it is.

Do you have any other LLU presence - like O2/Be?

That's what I have done - O2 for £7.50pm (O2 mobile customer discount) with 2 months free and £75 Quidco cashback. Net cost for one year = £0.

What are your other LLU options? If you want a very limited 'free' service and you can take Sky Talk, then fine. Otherwise there are much better options (like O2 if available LLU).

Thank you for your advice.

I am at work at the moment but will look into the other alternatives you have given.
