UK ISP Sky Broadband to Drop Superfast Unlimited Fibre Price to GBP7.50

Sky Broadband (BSkyB) will later today slash the cost of their superfast (‘up to’ 38Mbps) Sky Fibre Unlimited (FTTC) broadband package from £20 to just £7.50 per month for the first 6 months of service. Both new and existing customers should be able to take advantage.

As usual the service is only available to people in areas where the new FTTC technology is already available (soon to cover 66% of the UK) and customers will also need to take Sky Line Rental from £15.40 per month.

Sky Fibre + Free Weekend Calls
* Up to 38Mbps “typical” download speeds
* Truly unlimited downloads
* Inclusive weekend UK calls
* Free Sky Hub Wireless Router – £2.18 delivery charge
* Free Unlimited access to WiFi Hotspots from The Cloud
* Sky Shield (Parental Controls and Anti-Malware)
* 12 Month Contract

PRICE: £7.50 Per Month for the first 6 Months (£20 thereafter) + Line Rental

At the time of writing we don’t yet have access to the full details for this promotion, which should soon become visible on Sky’s website. But if there are any additions or changes that need to be made then we’ll update this post later today. An additional offer comes in the form of a £25 M&S Voucher for all upgrades to Broadband or Fibre Unlimited, which is stackable with the £7.50 Fibre Unlimited deal but only for existing customers.

ISPreview.co.uk has also seen information suggesting that the 12 month contract term for Sky Fibre might soon become an 18 month one, although we’ve yet to completely confirm that. Likewise the router delivery charge could also rise from £2.18 to £6.95 in the very near future.

UPDATE 10:52am

Sky’s website has now been updated, although the live offer says that the discount period will last for the first 6 months and not 12 as we were initially told (article adjusted). Meanwhile Sky’s standard unlimited broadband and phone package (without Sky TV) remains half price at £5 for the first 12 months of service.
