Adding BT Infinity plan to phone line?

Hi all,

My mum's currently on Sky for TV and Broadband, and with BT for Calls.

For the phone line, she pays £60 every 3 months for unlimited day and evening calls including the line rental in that £60.

Sky Broadband is more expensive than if we were with BT for both and I was wondering what the best approach or offers would be for both BT Calls and BB should I switch? BT Infinity broadband is a must as it's now available in our area! :D

Thanks in advance!

    There are other suppliers of FTTC high speed broadband that you can use similar to BT Infinity that may be cheaper.

    However, if you switched all your line rental and calls to Sky it would be cheaper but cheaper isn't always best.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    I'd go for Sky LLU over BT any day. If you want an FTTC product, that is another matter entirely.

    I moved from BT to Sky for cheaper calls and broadband.

    Line Rental £12.25 ( or £119.40 12 months up front)
    Broadband £7.50 (LLU Unlimited)
    Talk Freetime £0 ( free evening and weekend)

    So yes around £60 a quarter, I strongly doubt that BT would be cheaper for a like for like product.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
