I've got a flat that I need to use temporarily for the next 18 months before I rent it out.

So I need to decide what provider I should get for the:

- Cable/SKY
- Broadband/wireless
- Telephone

and what package to go for. As I'll be using the flat to put clients up in (and for myself), I'd like to be able to offer a good selection of programmes on the TV, so I need the SKY Sports and Movie package. Also fast broadband is a must. The telephone is the least important aspect because it will almost certainly never get used (but I'd still like to put one in)

Should I go for just 1 provider for all three (and are there any good packages out there at the moment)

ain't got no complaints with Sky for all 3.

You say flat - can you put a dish up?

I'd have to check with the landlord whether a dish can be put up.

What does your package include and how much do you pay per month?

Most contracts are 12months or over, your use at 18 months is not what I'd call temporary: any company would do.

Am paying approx £55/month for telephone line (inc calls, but we don't make many), 8MB unlimited broadband and all the channels bar Movies (and the saucy ones).
