Sky Broadband

[Stu+from+Wigan]

Hi, some time ago I transferred to Sky from Virgin Media for TV services. I stayed with Virgin for Broadband. Is it worth my while to transfer this to sky in terms of cost, speed and reliability? Thanks in advance !!

@Stu+from+Wigan  Cost maybe, speed, depends on what speeds you currently get with VM and what speeds you would get on the Openreach network.

BT could not trace my address 🙄🙄

What exactly did it say ?

How long have you been with virgin for?

Might just be that there hasn't (or isn't) an openreach line in for a while.

But its hard to advise with out knowing what may be at the property 

Have you checked openreach or sky websites directly

It just said 'address not found'

I've been with Virgin broadband for years , maybe  16-18 years. I will check direct on the websites you mention in the morning.

Thanks for your advice !!

Once a property is served from the Openreach network, only FTTP can match the higher tiers of Virgin Media speed: FTTC tops out at 80Mbs and is then reduced by distance from the fibre cabinet.
