toxo If she has a working phoneline then there's no need for an engineer from any provider, so it should be a level playing field.
I'd definitely be approaching Sky and O2 (as you have!) from that list.

If you pay BT 1 year up front they have very good deals.
After deciding to go with BT, they then offered me an earliest installation of 5th November. So after all that I've ended up going with Virgin, as they've guaranteed it will be done within 10-14 days. Apparently this is because they have their own equipment in the exchange and their own engineers, so don't need to rely on BT Openreach as the other providers do (hope they weren't BSing me and this is all true!).
Interestingly after putting in the address and all, they came out with an expected broadband speed faster than BT and others quoted which seemed odd seeing as it's the same line and the same distance to the exchange? Are they just being slightly optimistic or does having their own equipment mean that it could be a faster connection?
