I'm and existing tv customer and am happy with the TV - in fact can't live without it. I notice from their site that the offer existing TV customers 2MB Broadband for free. It seems to me that many who sign up for 8MB service end up with close to 2MB because of problems with BTs pipes anyway.
Does anyone know what I am likely to end up with I sign up to this?

Hi there

Well at your postcode the fastest you would get on a standard ADSL supply would be around 5Mbps due to distance from the exchange. If you went with a supplier such as O2 Broadband or Be Broadband you would hope to get speeds approaching 20Mbps, If you took Sky's 16Mb option then around 10Mbps area.

Hope this helps
