No way to know for sure but their is a good possibility they would not.

As the BB services offered by these two providers are so different a direct comparison is not possible. The only valid comparison is how responsive the relevent company is to:

Admitting they have an issue and what it is.

Fixing the issue in an acceptable timeframe.

From what I see and hear Sky appear to be winning hands down.
Well i have just moved to Sky BB from BT and previously Virgin and by far the best provider has been Sky .BT managed their network as to be practically unusable and the BT hub is just plain crap ,with Virgin i was on 50mg and got 30mg with Sky i get what i pay for which is up to 10mg at all times ,Sky do not manage the network at all and my speed is rock solid and the Sky hub is far superior than other hubs
