It's not as good as the "We'll pay you to take our broadband" deals that O2 used to do although history has proven that that is not a good business model to adopt.

I'm getting a free Sky Hub as well. I'm using an old SagemCom thing at the moment that I borrowed from a friend. I'm hoping for better performance and range.

Just called Sky to get a MAC. They offered me 12 months Line Rental Saver which is the equivalent of £11.70 per month and they dropped the £2.50 no TV charge with immediate effect.

So I've got phone and Fibre for £16.70 per month for 12 months. Of course, I accepted.

Best of luck on next year's "retention deal" now you are stuck on Sky LLU.

Better than being stuck on an 18 month broadband contract with a 12 month LRS deal.

The Sky hub's wifi range isn't much better by all accounts. I haven't used a Sky supplied router for quite along time since my Sagem router died and they wanted me to pay £69 for a new hub.

Sky offered me everything free but line rental for a year to stay.

But I watch Motogp... so it's cheaper with BT.

If i hadn't been a dolt and logged into BT Sports rather than watch through sky which i could do without seemingly being charged due to my account being held open due to BT my holding credit due (because they kept forgetting to tell me about it) i might have stayed, but getting clobbered for £12 a month means they are cheaper, by £4 a month and i get £80 of shopping to play with.

Well I know someone who has a Sky Hub (Black) at the front of there house and the range goes all the way tghrought and into the back garden.

It can acheive full speed (11mbps ADSL) and latency unaffected at about 8 metres up his garden so about 15-17m from Hub on iPhone so seems pretty good for range.

Not to sure about speed as your getting a fibre product but if its the 38mb product it should be fine.

Best I could get out of them today was £10 fibre discount for 6 months or £6.90pm (ish) off line rental for 10 months, but both require a new 12 month contract.

Don't need a MAC apparently, just an active line transfer, so looking for a new provider at the moment.
