BT to Sky broadband

[clee]

Due to switch on the 22nd and have all the details but ....
Sky have contacted BT etc to arrange the swap over . Anyone done this recently ? Any major cock-ups or extended downtime in your experience ?
I really can't afford it to be off for more than a day or so :scared:

I would never use sky broadband again even if they paid me. Too many bad experiences with them. I'm with o2 now and it's been fine.

Done deal .What problems did you have ?

Internet foreve going wrong. Kept messing up our bills and overcharging me. Then I was being stung for 10 meg broadband but I wasn't even getting half a meg and my line could only accept 2.5 so when I wanted to downgrade I was fined etc etc and the call centre is in the middle east somewhere and they kept fobbing us off. I could go on all night. O2 is uk based and jump through hoops to help

Thanks Robbie but as I say it's a done deal on the swap .We are going for the hd telly as well ( not that I'll watch any of it ,for the kids innit )
Main concern is with the swap over and any feck-ups on that front .
Me-Dawny runs a web business so any downtime will mean major stress for her and consequently me :laugh:

Sky tv perfect. Sky Internet and phone gayness. I hope it works out better for you than it did for me :).

Sky are the biggest s hit stain on the tapestry of man kind!!! Utter utter dog s hit with the WORST customer service this side of India. Utterly appalling manners from the staff and THE WORST company department structure. If you have a problem, threatening them with solicitors, trading standards etc wont get you anyware. They are hardened to it and get it everyday.

Clee, it aint a done deal till the cooling off period is over. Get out while you still can!:sad2:
