Sky confusion

Hi,

I am trying to sort out a sky package for my mum, it consists of broadband, phone [anytime including line rental!] and sky tv [package]

The offer she has got is £35 a month for the above, not sure yet if there are any costs in setting up or equipment. Will say she already has sky+ box dish etc...

Is i a good deal or can I do better?

Kev

    That would totally depend on what Sky channels she wants. If she wants Sport or Movies, fine, if not then have you considered just using Freesat or Freesat from Sky with the existing dish and LNB (you'd need a Freesat digibox for the former)?
    For your broadband options go to samknows.com, do an exchange search and look for your LLU options, they will be the best deals.
    Is Sky available LLU on her exchange? If not, I wouldn't consider the dire Sky Connect service that will be offered.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
  • Checked Samknows and Sky is on her exchange, she just uses web and email nothing much else.

    Got to check the paperwork she got tomorrow, so will know then what channels/package is on the offer.

    She has got freeview and free channels on sky box

    Just need to sort broadband and phone package
