Sky Growth Strong Despite Champions League Loss To BT
- The Times, Thursday, October 22, 2015 6:50 AM
The loss of Champions League football has failed to suppress Sky’s growth after the satellite broadcaster reported its strongest start to a financial year for customer growth since 2011. Sky said that it had added 77,000 new customers in Britain during the three months to the end of September, its best first quarter in four years and up 50 per cent year-on-year. The group gained 43,000 new television customers and 133,000 broadband users, although some subscribers will have signed up for both services.
