Remember that the speed you receive with FTTC, whomever the provider, is dependent on how far you are away from the fibre cabinet (I'm very close to mine so usually see 74Mbit/17Mbit on both connections). One possible reason to avoid Sky for fibre broadband, unlike their ADSL product in certain areas, is because Sky make the use of MER for authentication compulsory hence customers are currently forced to use the Sky router in the chain of equipment.
