BSkyB added 90,000 new customers

UK satellite broadcaster BSkyB says it added 90,000 net new customers in the three months to the end of June, up 17% on the same period last year, to give it 8.6 million subscribers.

It had record total new customer additions of 349,000, up 20%. The company said churn, or the number of customers leaving the service, had fallen to 12.1% from a previous figure of 13.7%. It said it had 716,000 broadband customers.

BSkyB will give its annual results on July 27 but updated the market this morning with non-financial figures.
