They're a bit like godaddy - lots of people say how great they are, but if you're one of the ones who gets a (far from uncommon) problem, you are stone cold fucked. Take or leave the advice, but do not touch Sky with your worst enemies 10 foot bargepole

OK - many thanks mate - got it loud and clear - sounds a bit like talk-talk were when they first started back when I was in uk a lot more, fucking nightmare that was.
I will have to get one of the 'kids' to see if there's any contract period either or both the current BT phone-lines.
I know the calls are free up to an hour, so I'm guessing there is - just hope it's only on one of them.
Appreciate the big warning signs re Sky though
Aaahh - just got the Virgin result, no cable, so broadband alone at a snail pace (4 up 1 down due to location

) is 17 quids a month.
As I recall Be-Unlimited are about 14 quid monthly per line for what will be the same speed;
I bet a pound to a pinch of shit Sky will kill them completely when they 'converted' enough 'old' customer contracts though
