rip off.
i was with them for one year and whilst the service is good paying £25pm for broadband is just wrong.
now with Sky's 16meg for £10 a month is what i call a bargain and fast as fook

As Magic said, it's a rip-off.
You can get the same service with other providers for a lot less. BT are bascially charging £10 a month for your flashy 'hub phone'.

Mixed responses then....
Ideally want wireless, so is it worth me going with someone else perhaps and just buying a wireless router?

sky give you a free wireless router worth £50 but you have to buy a wireless network card apparently. these are cheap as chips i've been told.
only downside is you have to be a sky subscriber to receive the broadband

the broadband is not ran through the sky box but through my bt line.

our bt home hub resets itself about 3 times a day so you lose your connection for a minute each time, other than that its been great and the speed tests show they really are 8mb.
