Just want to know what Sky is charging for TV & broadband.

It must be somewhere on their website but I keep running in to a brick wall on this.
My mother's contract has come to an end & so it's time to see what's best for her (whether that's staying with or moving from Sky).
She's currently on £29 for TV & £34.50 for broadband & talk.
I just want to know what new customers are getting charged for that because 9/10 it's cheaper, or at least has been in the past but I can't find a simple page with the figures on. They're all get this add on for this price, get this different deal for that price, have all this extra stuff and pay X for it for Y months and then after that it's something else.
Just basic TV & broadband, that's all I need to know. Where on their site do I need to be heading?

Basic TV doesn't happen with Sky, and at £29 its probably a legacy package anyway.If you have the legacy Sky+HD the offers on the website will be for Q so its like trying to compare apples and oranges - it isn't going to happen.Need to work out what channels are being watched - if its all stuff that's on Freeview there isn't any point paying for TV from Sky for a start.0

Not sure what a legacy package is but her contract will have been taken out a little over 2years ago.Neil_Jones said:Basic TV doesn't happen with Sky, and at £29 its probably a legacy package anyway.If you have the legacy Sky+HD the offers on the website will be for Q so its like trying to compare apples and oranges - it isn't going to happen.Need to work out what channels are being watched - if its all stuff that's on Freeview there isn't any point paying for TV from Sky for a start.
As for Sky+HD and Sky Q - she's 100% got Sky Q, or at least the box and router.
I remember something didn't go right at some point, she phoned to complain & got Q at no extra cost.
I'll tell her to weigh up what she wants & go from there.0 -
