Button09

sky are doing tv, broadband and phone for €45 for new customers...

Great deal, rang up as I have sky entertainment at €35 a month and Vodafone broadband at €44 a month... no deals as usual for old customers..

For three months, if I heard the ad correctly.

Wonder what it'll revert to after that time???

What number did you call? I am using NTL for Broadband only (think it's €42 a month) and want to see if Sky can do me a better deal!?

Is this the low end sky broadband option, witih the 2GB cap?

I would love to sign up for sky tv, but it always seems the deals are far worse for new customers than for old ones who threaten to leave.

They are doing an offer for existing customers at the moment for 3 months half price broadband and calls that will still be cheaper than what you are currently on but €5 dearer than what new customers are being offered!

I currently have UPC for broadband/tv/phone and it works out at 66 per month, so i'm interested in that it might save money

Any idea if "domestic" channels (rte, bbc etc etc) are part of the sky entertainment package? Not really clear from their website.

How would Sky & UPC compare for broadband speed?

I seem to remember their radio selection being a bit rubbish- it's a real bonus on UPC being able to play BBC radio 6 through the TV!

I'm in the same position, currently with UPC but these Sky offers are tempting as my UPC TV and broadband bill has crept up from €50 a month to €66 over the last 2 years.

However I am not sure as I've heard that Sky's broadband isn't the best whereas UPC's is pretty decent in fairness to them. Also I think Sky have a cap on their broadband per month, hassle I don't need. The last thing is that I don't think the amount of channels you get on the basic Sky package is as many as what you get on UPC.

So overall I reckon I'm going to stick to UPC as I can see disadvantages to joining Sky and the savings aren't big enough to justify it.

Its the lite package 10gb cap, normal usage in our house is about 30-40gb thats just streaming netflix, spotify, and the usual not downloading torrents etc.

10gb isn't much. Thanks Paddy for that
