I am just glad it is not the other way around, O2 were total rubish.

Well we have some threads on this forum which aren't too pretty for them either.
However the Murdochs are no longer on the Board of Directors.
lol - Actually they have been fine for a friend of mine. Admittedly he doesn't use the Internet a great deal, so he has a low monthly cap. He also has an O2 mobile contract linked, so he gets a discount for that too.

I have a question regarding their fiber services seeing that is is available in my area can one have this without the sky package or is this needed, unlike the dsl package where you can have broadband on its own?

You do not need to have Sky TV to have Sky Broadband or Sky Fibre Broadband.

You do need to take Sky Phone rental, the same as ADSL.

Re: Sky to Acquire Telefónica UK's Broadband and Fixed-Line Telephony Business
Interesting that you should say that the setup fee is only applicable if you do not have Sky TV.
On my initial call to Sky I was only offered SFUP with the installation charge. I tried to get it waived, but the person wouldn't do it.
It was only after talking with someone else I was able to get it waived.
