Have to say we found the whole experience from start to finish a complete cockup.
Ordered online, and accepted, they took the money upfront for the connection/hub, then did nothing for 3 weeks, failed to contact us at all, their online "status" system was always down, unable to track and tell us what was happening. We spent over 6 hrs on the phone trying to get in touch with a human being being passed from pillar to post, with no-one knowing anything, or caring only to find when we did that although the computer said "yes" our local exchange did not have any sky equipment in, so they could not offer us the package they had allowed us to sign up for therefore failed all the changover, which also meant that the number we had to get from BT for the changeover which only lasted 28 days was invalid because there was not enough time on it to change to another service, so we had to wait till that ran out and re-apply. All in all one almighty cockup, with only a very tacit apology in the end, with very little in the way of compensation for the massive inconvenience we suffered. (We have been sky customers since it started, having Sky+ on the day it launched, and sky hd on the day it launched, paying premium for service at launch each time)
We do still have sky tv (if you want the choice of channels there is no alternative) but we have found customer service when things go wrong to be really poor, as it is a nightmare trying to find someone to speak to.
If if goes right I'm sure its ok, but when it goes wrong, it really goes wrong.
