silly question, where did you get the 3.5mb connection figure from? have you have a look at samknows website to see what it says there, you could find that the 3.5mb is based on a ADSL line whereas Sky LLU uses ADSL2+ which can give higher speeds for example, my ADSL estimated speed is only 5.5mb however i am on Sky LLU and actually get about 9mbDrop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

the 3.5 comes from the sky website for my area fk1,also when i phoned about that was the speed they quoted0 -

test like speedtest are too innacurate. but no point in comparing the 2 anyway as 1 is via phone other via cable..
to original question if your just surfing then you wont really notice the difference.0 -
You should be fine on a 3.5mb line, I’m on a 3mb line here at the moment split between 8 devices in total, phones laptops and pc's and general surfing is rarely slow even when everyone is online.
As has already been mentioned though make sure its their Sky LLU service (ADSL2+)
Also might be worth looking into what their monthly download limit is in comparison to your existing provider?[FONT="]Information is provided as a guide only. Please do not assume that all information is 100% accurate. Information used is done so at the risk of the reader.[/FONT]
