Going from Sky to NTL - any opinions?
 

My sister has the Sky Family Pack and Disney, but no landline (her 12-month
minimum subs was completed at a previous address) and just uses her mobile to
make calls.

However, she's looking to get the equivalent package on NTL and use their
phone system for calls to landlines so has worked out that overall it'll be
cheaper.

I've no experience of NTL's quality of service over the digital TV side of
things, and until the competition is opened up for line rental in the coming
months, BT want to charge £10.50/month for that, and despite there being an
old socket in an upstairs bedroom, BT wanted to charge nearly £100 for putting
one in downstairs when they reconnect.

Occasionally BT have cheap "reconnect to BT" offers, and when I did it 5.5
years ago I only paid £10 for the whole thing, plus the usual line rental of
course.

All opinions welcome. TIA,
--
