Their new ‘See Speak Surf’ deals offer great money value, not only with their cheap bundling options but also with the free extras that come with – like wireless router, free McAfee security for 12 months etc.
History
BSkyB, the parent company of Sky Broadband was established in 1998.
Operating its satellite digital services both in the UK and Ireland, BSkyB grew rapidly and launched Sky Broadband in 2006. The growth of Sky broadband is phenomenal and it currently has over 716,000 Sky broadband customers across the UK.
In mid 2007, BSkyB purchased Amstrad, the Freeview maker for a deal worth 125. The deal helped Sky to make considerable price reductions in its DTV packages.
After a brief period of partnering with Virgin Media, Sky broke the deal with the cable giant for commercial reasons.
BSkyB has also made other significant acquisitions that include Easynet and UK Online.
Sky Broadband Packages
There are three broadband offers from Sky Broadband - Sky Base, Sky Mid and Sky Max. While Sky Base and Sky Mid offers 2 Mbps and 8 Mbps download speed, Sky Max offers high speed broadband connection with 16 Mbps download speed and unlimited download limit.
Sky TV customers who are connected by Sky's network, can sign up for all Sky packages without paying for any additional cost. However, they need to pay one off connection fee of £30 when they add any sky broadband package with their DTV service.
