Sky is the UK's biggest digital TV provider, and perhaps best known for its movies and sports channels. It's also a popular broadband firm and offers home phone too.
What does Sky offer?
While Sky is famous for its Sky TV subscription service, it's also a major provider of broadband packages - both standard-speed and fibre - and Sky Talk is its home phone service.
Sky TV typically requires a satellite dish, which you'll need to get installed - it'll be fitted to the outside of your home by a Sky engineer. Alternatively, it recently launched Sky Glass, a smart TV with Sky services built in, with channels delivered via the internet.
Sky offers a range of pick and mix TV packages on top of its standard entertainment option (Sky Signature), including Kids, Sky Cinema, Sky Sports and BT Sports.
Traditional Sky TV packages still come with its Sky Q box, which allows you to record and store your favourite programmes.
It also runs its own mobile phone service Sky Mobile, which 'piggybacks' off the O2 network. See our Cheap Mobile Finder for the latest Sky Mobile deals and all firms that use the O2 network.
Is Sky Broadband any good?
Sky's customer service is rated 'OK' overall.
In our July 2024 poll, 40% of over 700 Sky customers who answered scored it 'great' for customer service, and just over 27% rated it 'poor'.
What type of broadband deals does Sky offer?
Sky has a range of broadband packages. All come with Sky Talk line rental as well.
Its different packages include:
- Superfast 35 (36Mb)
- Superfast Broadband(61Mb)
- Ultrafast Broadband (145Mb)
- Broadband Ultrafast Plus (500Mb)
- Broadband Gigafast (up to 900Mb) which is its fastest offering but only available to around 50% of households
Sky uses the Openreach network, so it's available to the majority of households, but not all homes can get the faster speeds - use our address checker to see if you can get it. To find out which speed is right for you, see our Cheap Broadband guide.
All of Sky's broadband packages require you to take line rental too, through its Sky Talk service.
If you simply get its basic Sky Pay-as-you-Talk package so that you can have broadband, calls won't be included.
If you'll use it to make calls, there are a range of packages you can pay for, including Sky Talk Anytime Extra and Sky Talk International Extra.
