First off, I compared the base cost as at today for "40/10" unlimited fibre broadband (ignoring any cashbacks or special offer prices applicable for the first three months or whatever):
Sky Fibre Unlimited (40/10) Fibre Broadband £20.00 Sky Talk Line Rental £14.50 £34.50 Fibre Broadband £20.00 Sky Talk Upfront Line Rental £9.95 (requires payment in advance of £119.40) £29.95 BT Unlimited Infinity 1 (40/10) Fibre Broadband £23.00 Line Rental £15.45 £38.45 Fibre Broadband £23.00 Line Rental Saver £10.75 (requires payment in advance of £129.00) £33.75 TalkTalk Fibre Medium (40/10) Essentials Broadband £6.50 HomeSafe Security £2.00 Fibre Medium £10.00 £18.50 Line Rental £14.95 £33.45 Essentials Broadband £6.50 HomeSafe Security £2.00 Fibre Medium £10.00 £18.50 Value Line Rental £9.50 (requires payment in advance of £114.00) £28.00
Next, I compared the base cost as at today for "80/20" unlimited fibre broadband (again ignoring any cashbacks or special offer prices applicable for the first three months or whatever):
Sky Fibre Unlimited Pro (80/20) Fibre Broadband £30.00 Sky Talk Line Rental £14.50 £44.50 Fibre Broadband £30.00 Sky Talk Upfront Line Rental £9.95 (requires payment in advance of £119.40) £39.95 PlusNet Unlimited Fibre (80/20) Fibre Broadband £19.99 Line Rental £14.50 £34.49 Fibre Broadband £19.99 Line Rental Saver £10.99 (requires payment in advance of £131.88) £30.98 BT Unlimited Infinity 2 (80/20) Fibre Broadband £26.00 Line Rental £15.45 £41.45 Fibre Broadband £26.00 Line Rental Saver £10.75 (requires payment in advance of £129.00) £36.75 TalkTalk Fibre Large (80/20) Essentials Broadband £6.50 HomeSafe Security £2.00 Fibre Large £15.00 £23.50 Line Rental £14.95 £38.45 Essentials Broadband £6.50 HomeSafe Security £2.00 Fibre Large £15.00 £23.50 Value Line Rental £9.50 (requires payment in advance of £114.00) £33.00
Points that I noticed:
1. Caller Display
- free of charge on Sky
- can be free of charge on BT (subject to registering for BT Privacy at Home)
- costs £0.99 per month on PlusNet
- seems to be part of a boost package of 6 features costing £4.10 per month on TalkTalk
2. HomeSafe Security (TalkTalk)
- this may be an optional boost that can be excluded if not required but unsure about that fact!
3. Inclusive Calls:
- seem to be restricted to weekends only now for new joiners
- calls to 0845 & 0870 seem to be inclusive on BT & PlusNet
Please feel free to correct me on any prices and other points where I've got it wrong!
