yeah have HD Talk and Broadband although they tried to do me over with Sky connect @ £17 as the exchnage was full stating i would get 8M but the libne could only carry 3.6

In the end they knock £12 a month off the bill so the broadband is £5

Just be careful as they wil charge you if the exchange is full

I read a few things on the net that say they will install it without a phone line but there is an additional charge of £30. Mobile broadband does seem really expensive.

Might go down the route of Sky+/ Phone line and BB then.

Yep, Sky demand you have a BT Line, even though it's not actually needed :lol:

As cavey said you need a BT line to get sky installed otherwise they wont install it. :thumbs:

You need a BT line to get Sky installed anyway don't you? So may as well get the line installed then get Sky TV and Broadband?

I was in exactly the same position as you. the only broadband you can have without a landline is cable (Virgin) or mobile (uber expensive for anything other than checking a few text websites).

BT might still be doing free connection if you check HUKD, if not, Sky is £25 connection with a free Sky + box and dependingon your exchange braodband for free or £10 a month

My Sky+ (2 packs) / Sky phoneline / Sky broadband costs me £37.50 a month (if the exchange was unbundled this would be £27.50 a month).

I was previously paying £36.50 a month to BT for line + broadband

We move into our new house 1st August. Its a new build so there are no connections currently. We both have mobiles and wanted to explore the option of not bothering with a landline.

We still want broadband and Sky+, and were just wanting to work out if it would be cheaper to get mobile broadband and Sky+ or to get a line put in and have phoneline/broadband/homephone all with Sky/BT...

Tried working it out but so many different things and packages to consider.:lol:
