I thought might be handy for some.:)

Sky has today launched the UK’s lowest fibre broadband and line rental offer exclusive for Sky TV customers and a brand new Sky Broadband Tech Team, offering customers superfast broadband speeds and Sky’s industry leading customer support at a great price.

Sky Fibre will be available for just £20 a month, including line rental (usually £27.40), and a reduced one off set up cost of just £19.95, in an exclusive deal for new and existing Sky TV customers, as well as TV customers with Sky Broadband when they sign up to an 18 month contract.

With UK average download speeds of 34Mb and a 25GB monthly usage allowance, Sky TV customers will love the opportunity to explore even more of Sky’s On Demand world of entertainment. From movies like Zoolander 2 and The Revenant, to addictively good box sets Fortitude and Grey’s Anatomy, plus all their favourite shows.

And that’s not it, as Sky introduces the Sky Broadband Tech Team, knowing how important specialist, broadband customer service is. The new, dedicated UK team of experts are specially trained to resolve customers’ broadband issues, and will build on Sky’s leading customer service, as rated Number 1 by Ofcom for the last two years.

From ensuring their broadband runs at its optimum speed, to solving most broadband problems online or over the phone, or if needed sending a specially trained engineer to their home, the new team will be available to give a better, personalised customer experience. The expert team will even be kitted out with their own bespoke tools, new Tech Team branded uniform and iconic vehicles, so customers can’t miss them!

A 25GB download limit is useless really. Download Zoolander and that's 3GB. Or John Carter is near 7GB.

The Virgin offer still beats it.

That might be the case if you are able to get Virgin,but the majority of people cannot,so still a good deal.

Its a crap deal if you want it for Sky on Demand - I use 200GB per month just for stuff that the grand kids watch on Youtube and the odd film or episode on Catch up - suspect a LOT of people will be paying excess charges or being "persuaded " to upgrade to unlimited in short order.
If you don't do much downloading/streaming most people better off on standard broadband packages.

I would imagine that any limited fibre option would be useless as needing a faster speed indicates more usage. In fact many capped ADSL contracts are useless, as the users end up paying highly (financially or speedwise) for any 'excess' usage.

Correct, the uncapped ADSL at £17.40 is much better value unless you're at the very end of the line with lots of others between you and the exchange.
