Sky vs O2 for home phone & Unlimited broadband

wookie6

Hi,

I've previously been with O2 for broadband and was impressed with the service, however this was a couple of years ago.

I now need a new broadband and phone service and as far as I can see Sky appears to be a great deal for unlimited boradband.

SamKnows shows:

The following services are available in your location:

• BT Wholesale ADSL
• BT Wholesale ADSL Max
• BT Wholesale WBC (21CN)
• BT Wholesale SDSL
• BT FTTC
• AOL LLU
• O2 / Be LLU
• Bulldog LLU
• TalkTalk (CPW) LLU
• Sky Broadband / Easynet LLU
• Pipex LLU
• Tiscali LLU

I'm not a Sky or O2 customer, therefore cost for Sky look to be:

Sky - 12 month contract (£12.25 line rental + £5 a month broadband for 6 months + £10 a month broadband for 6 months) = £237 / £19.75 a month

Are Sky comparable to O2 for broadband service? Would anyone have any hesitation going with Sky?

Thanks!

I have been with o2 for the last few years, same great service been honest. Sky is expensive for what it is.

BT FTTC, get yourself on Infinity. Better wireless equipment, quicker speed.

I am on O2 and have been since the start, I can't complain, they are most definitely the best ISP we have ever had. I recently moved over to their home phone service too, we get £7.50 line rental £6 unlimited calls and free broadband for 6 months, then £10 per month, so over the year its £222 or £18.50/month average and that includes your calls

I did have O2 a while ago - no complaints. On Sky though as got a good deal with sky tv and sky talk - really good service so far! I download a lot so it's perfect for me.

Had O2, went to Sky. Not had any cause to complaint in 2.5 years.
