Tried to tag you but system may be taking your username as a postcode

From a personal experience, absolutely. Any issues re speed and reliability were dealt with quickly even if one them was my own fault for resetting the hub too much (thats only 2 times in 3-4 years).

There will be some with different opinions/experiences but sky compare favourably in comparison with other isp's

According to Ofcom Sky come out pretty well on both satisfaction and perhaps more importantly on complaints handling when things go wrong. I have used them for 7 years and the service has been very reliable.

It all depends on your requirements. If you only want a bog standard broadband provider with an average router and no fixed public IP or rDNS for a domestic service then they are about average...

If you need fix public IP or/and rDNS then a specialised ISP is necessary, eg: A&A or Zen as examples.
