Only you can decide, based on your personal requirements, what is the best deal.

However if saving a little money is your only concern then BT might be your best bet but bear in mind that you have to take a telephone service with your fibre BB service.

BT are a little cheaper than sky with their free install and half price for 6 month offers but offer more expensive telecom service, are renowned for adding stuff on to your bill that you never wanted, insist on 18month rolling contracts and actively protocol manage their network, support is offshored and on a par with VM.

Sky offer a free install for existing customers and cheaper telephone options. The BB is completely unmetered and unmanaged. The service is very reliable but from my limited experience the support has been UK based and very good. Contract is 12 months. I pay Sky £30pm for Fibre Pro (80/20) and was paying VM £30pm for 30/3 service. Offhand I can't remeber what sky talk costs except for me, with my usage, it offered a saving over my, at the time, BT line and the costly calling plan they insisted on foisting on me.
