Seems original press release has been surplanted by what is on fibre.sky.com

You can get the Fibre for £20 if you take the telephone line, no need for TV.
If you have TV the price remains the same. No discount with the fibre service.

proof will be when the first orders are placed I guess.

Asked the pre-sales people via the chat facility and they said TV is not required (if you have faith in anything they say).
Also said that more information would be available on the 4th April

We also called them (after my recent success with getting FTTC showing) and they also say no need for TV as part of it. Will be sure to update when we place the order on the first day, since we're already with Sky for line rental and ADSL (LLU).

Hopefully we don't need TV, would make it less attractive. Prefer Sky for their service, you'd have to pay me to go back to TalkTalk!

As long as Sky come up with something better than 40/2 (preferably an 80/20 option) in the next 3 months or so I'll probably stick with them.

Re: Sky fibre will not need TV

In reply to a post by yarwell:
"Sky Broadband Unlimited Fibre will cost £20 a month for new and existing customers taking Sky Talk calls and Line Rental."

I've seen Sky say "new and existing customers" before. When querying further, it transpired they actually meant "new and existing TV customers", because they are so ingrained about being a TV company they forgot to specify the TV bit.

Will be interesting to see if that's the case again here.

yeah, reminds me of a conversation over a bank counter once - "Are you a customer, sir?" "Well I'm on this side of the counter and you're on the other so I guess I'm a customer"
