Hi @swansea_karl1975 Like for like exactly the same. BT and Sky use the same Openreach network.

Re: Switching from SKY Q
You could find the broadband better as BT don't throttle or impose any restrictions/limits. Sky are also suspected to run higher contention ratio's meaning you are more likely to hit network congestion at peak times.

Re: Switching from SKY Q
Having been with Sky within the last 12 months before moving back to BT, I would recommend the move.
WiFi seems to be much more stable, especially when playing my Xbox.

Re: Switching from SKY Q
Personally i switched to bttv from sky after 16 years. Within 6 months i was back to sky. All the while they use youview i would not go near it so old fashioned . . Skys ul is so so much superior . . I am not saying i wouldnt move again but until they liven it up a bit im sticking with sky far superior. . And pricewise bt no cheaper for an inferior service. Broadband wise bt is no better just more expensive.

Re: Switching from SKY Q
I moved from BT FTTC to Sky Superfast FTTC over 9 weeks ago and speed im getting is much the same as it was when I was with BT 64mb/65mb.
I also had BT TV up until 15 months ago before I cancelled and moved to Now direct with discounts. Saving me a few pounds a month.
Wifi with BT was a little better then what im getting with Sky but not by that much.
