Default Sky TV knowledgeable people please help

I remember reading somewhere on here of someone having some codes or special deal packages, do they still exist?

I've been with vm for a few years but fancy a change to Sky & they've offered me a basic package tv, telephone which includes free evening & weekend calls & limited internet for £30pm

I'm a bit worried about the limited internet, does it have a lot of restrictions? I dont do much downloading, just mostly browse.

Thanks

Sky do a truly unlimited broadband service for just £7.50 when you have Sky Talk. Do a check on your post code here -http://www.sky.com/portal/site/skyco...ostcodechecker
If it shows that Everyday or Unlimited is available then that's good.

What else do you need to know?

personally i use skys max internet package, its less than a tenner.

whole thing works out to just under 40quid for the phone, tv and internet (dont forget the BT line rental is 11-12quid, people forget that when pricing it up)

phone 11
broadband 10
TV 17

What do you mean?

Remember you don't have to have BT line rental, Sky do one too for £11 per month.
