Are Sky TV/Broadband deals better than Virgin?

[John24]

My Virgin contract is up and they have offered 250mbps broadband with their mega TV package plus sky sports SD for £51 per month. Ideally id like TNT sports as well. Do sky offer a deal like this but with TNT sports as well?

Probably best for you to call to see what package Sky can put together for you. We're customers here.

@John24  To add to @Mark39 post we also won't know what broadband speeds you can get via Sky and the Openreach network so that may have a baring on any deals you take.

[John24]

Thank you both! I'll give sky a call and see if they can do a better deal.

Note that 250Mbs is a speed band which only Virgin can offer, using their private coaxial cable network.

Sky resells 'up to' 80Mbs FTTC in most places, and 150 / 500 / 900 Mbs FTTP where Openreach has deployed appropriate optical infrastructure (or the relatively rare 150Mbs using G.fast)

Good to know, cheers!
