Yep. We had a letter sent to us from the council after we moved into a new build. Also, if you're moving into a block of flats, most of them are setup for Sky and not Virgin but you'll still need BT to turn on all your lines and stuff.

The really annoying thing is that BT will need to set you up regardless of which supplier you want to go with. If you don't want chose BT set up is approx £160 if you do choose them they kindly waver this (fuckers).

Tax bands took nearly 6 months for my new build.
Internet took 3 weeks (BT had to activate the line).
Sky took 1 week. Sky cables were installed in all the rooms (at extra cost to me) but they hadn't connected the cables to the shared dish.
New builds are great...

House builders are fucking useless. With 1 week to go before completion they can't even tell me what council tax band the property is, if there is Internet, Sky/Cable TV. Are you just supposed to turn up on day 1 and work it out?
