Round my way, I could order from Sky the day after the cab went live.

That's good then. All in Skys hands now

Thanks guys... now the my only decision is do I go for 40/10 or 80/20

Go 80/20 for the upload.

Just spoke to someone at Sky and they advised me to order with someone else, said at this minute they don't know when I will be able to order.

How can SKY be so bad compared to everyone else at taking the order? If I check EE, TalkTalk and BT all say I can order.

Id switch but I have only just signed up for 12 months broadband with SKY.

Is 210 perhaps on a different L2S Ribble?

I suspect not

Able to order this morning so looks like there is a 24 hour delay between cab being activated and sky allowing orders.

Shame it will take until the 26th to go live. I would have thought it could be done quicker than that seen I already have the adsl service with router that supports fttc so no engineer visit needed.

I'd be wary and go for the 40/10 first, as you can always upgrade, but downgrading is more difficult. But check what speeds you can actually get.

We work from home a lot and have to send big files so having 20mbps upload will make a big difference.

I'm really close to the cab so expected speed is the full 80/20
