Hi
I have signed up with Sky yesterday for their HD offer.
Free Line rental and evening weekend calls
Free HD box
Free Variety pack plus 2 extra packs
Free 2MB broadband
at £30 a month.
Salesman told that I don't have to pay a penny to BT now, but people are saying that you still pay BT a line rental which is around £11 a month..
I am confused.. do I have to pay BT or its all over from BT?
Thanks
Saad

You do not need to pay both line rentals.0

Sky do have a free line rental deal in which you would not pay BT anything for line rental. My advice would be to check with BT if you are in a contract or renewable contract before you make your decision. And this should also be moved to the telephone line section.0

BT's lowest plan is £11.54 so no need to pay £160
