    yeah, go to another provider... check https://www.samknows.com and see who else can provide broadband there, if they're lucky possibly O2, then you could also make your grandad some money by signing up via quidco...

    Think theres no connection charge with O2

    Sky will want £60 because your dad is looking to get the basic broadband package, with the deal theyre running at the moment, he could get the top deal instead for the same price
