Re: Sky Remove Fair Use Policy From Max Broadband
You CAN have unlimited, just so long as not too many users are complete plonkers with it. There is a difference between "I don't want a limit" and "I'm going to hammer it like hell all the time".

The other mitigating factor for Sky, is that you have to have at least a minimum subscription package, so what they lose on the broadband, is made up to a degree on the TV service, as unlike Virginmedia, you cannot just have Sky broadband.

So it costs £27 per month, with 1 Sky mix and their top broadband (up to 16Mb, unlimited) - BT line required, and if the rental is still £10.50, that takes it to £37.50

Virgin XL Broadband with Phone line is £31 (ongoing price cheaper when taken with a phone line than without), but does not include Sky mix (even a single mix is more channels than TV:M, even if that does get thrown in - TV:M is essentially just freeview on cable)
