    Sky unlimited is unlimited there is not fair usage cap.
    The 40Gb Sky product is the rebadged BT product sold where Sky/Easynet have not LLU'd the exchange.

    BTW I do use BT for calls, and use the line rental saver scheme.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    Every company has a fair usage policy lol
    LLU is such a pain to swap! haha!
    Line rental saver is a good scheme! saves you about 35-50 quid
  • I personally will never ever use BT stuff, and I've no interest in Sky products either.

    Virgin Media have always kept me sweet. In saying that, I also don't have a TV service but if I were to choose one it would be BT Vision, really good film service considering the price. Only problem is you have to have BT broadband - no thanks!!

    True that is the problem with Vision
    at the moment BT is doing a good pack for all 3 though which is 7.50 for max vision option 1 broadband and any time calls
    then it goes up to £38 a month for all 3

    naff123, you must be related to that wonderful marketing executive who BT rolled out last year to justify the change in the free evening period (from 6pm -6am moved to 7pm-7am) - he talked thru' his backside as well:rotfl:

    Not at all Brewer you can solve that problem by paying an extra 2 pounds to go to unlimited anytime!
    so you can save your self a whole bunch of cash so it doesnt really matter when the evening starts IMO evening is 5 pm onwards

    Yes that was what I was referring too.

    For example, I pay £12.50 /month for unlimited broadband with Sky.(or £15/month without Sky TV sub)
    The same service with BT would cost £28/month.
    Apart from trading on their name what would I get by going to BT?
    Apart from Peace of mind that its a actual company what has the countries interests at heart unlike Murdoch's Sky
    you get over 300 pounds of Savings with BT

    You seem quite ignorant of what is available other than your own product that you are spamming, please tell me what my FUP is on Virgin Media?

    Could you explain that please? What makes BT any more 'British' than Sky these days, apart from the name? And who outsources more of it's CS overseas?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    By Grabthars hammer what a savings, how do I get them?

    PS BT did not have the UK's telecommunication industry at heart when they switched over to importing their kit from China, the final nail in the coffin, for UK telecom manufacture.
