if you get sky, get sky HD +

i got virgin package, virgin XL tv package + [like sky +], phone thingy so you get free weekend and calls after 6pm=free, and internet

and its discounted cos were using them for all 3 things, so its not bad

only channels i aint got is sky movies, sky news n few others but don't really watch them anyway

Guys... hes on about Sky Broadband...

We changed from Ntl/Virgin to Sky a while ago. Haven't had any problems with the internet or anything at all yet. I think Virgin is faster, but Sky is still pretty fast. If that makes any sense. But if I had to choose I would probably go for Virgin, although there is nothing wrong with Sky.

Lol, when I was trying to get my Wii online it couldn't even find my internet connection. So I steal next doors.

I'm on Sky Broadband, my Wii works fine on the net, so does my Sky+ box and my alarm.

But I would say that if you have a choice, get Virgin Media - cable is so much faster. I can't get it 'cause i'm on a new estate.

SKY TV - Great.

SKY Broadband - Sucks.

They are slow due to having to use very high contention ratios, and having loads of problems from the start.

2mb Sky Mid Package.

Now that is very bad. Think about it, they a struggling to give you 2Mbps at7AM in the morning when there will be barely anyone using their bandwidth.

50 miles is nothing for fibre. It's the noise on the copper wiring that makes the difference.
