We are with BT for line rental, using 18185, we dont make many calls, and the house we are buying use Sky for phone, TV and broadband.

What are the pros and cons of going to Sky for line rental?

We are not interested in a TV package, but probably Sky broadband as LLU choice is either Sky or TalkTalk. We are currenlty with O2 LLU on their old Standard legacy unlimited product. So it looks like Sky unlimited broadband is the best alternative.

It looks like the best deal (value and service) would be Sky Broadband & Talk.

Are new customers successful in getting discounts over the phone with Sky or is cashback better via oredering online?

    Without TV they will charge you a premium over the normal cost and you can also only have the Unlimited Broadband Package

    it may have changed recently but we looked to do this and was told we couldnt unbundle. Without a TV package you couldnt have any sky offering. This was about 18 months ago.

    Sky line rental comes through a BT line so if your happy with BT then just stick with them.
