what bradband do you have and is it good im with orange. Its costing me 19.99 a month and i think its a lot the contrat runs out next month so i think i may change but to who

 

im wit aol pay 19.99 a month
went with them for the free laptop

 

depend on what u want really, do you download loads?. I'm with Virgin Media at home and can't really fault them much..

Having unlimited 20meg connection for £25 ain't bad...plus it's being upgraded to 50 by the end of the year

But all depends if u have cable in your street

 

Bt its wank... Always timing out and cutting off at peak periods

 

I'm with SKY, used to be with Orange, and it's ok. Only get the occasional hang-up but it's up and running again within a minute so I can't really complain.
I don't know how much it is as a stand alone, I've got it with TV and phone package.

 

Im with Orange, i pay 14.99 per month, does have monthly download limit but ive NEVER been told off or anything, then again i dont download huge amounts, just when i need to.

NEVER been any down time in the few years ive been using them when they were changing company names and what not, top service

 

aol are shit.....if you live in a none lu area that goes up by a tenner so £30 a month,my brother went for that deal ....up to 8 meg and he is getting half a meg,i was with aol and they said i could only get 1meg with my line,so i fooked them off went with tiscali and get 4 meg,they are so full of shit

 

BT were truly appalling. Homecall were even worse (think they're gone under now). Now with Talktalk. Good deal on phone/net, and had no problems at all.

 

orange has it's ups and down
when it's down it takes ages to get back on line again, once it was off for 2 months and not a hint of saying sorry until i kicked off about it

sky have been spot on and it was a 1/3rd of the price

 

Did you not read my reply?? ive been with them years and had no down time, only when it was something i did wrong.
Clearly its a problem your end rather than with the actual service

 

just signed to o2 tonight

£7.50 a month
100 day cooling off
free connection
free modem
8 meg
UK based support

cant go wrong, hopefully

 

I'm with Sky. The connection is pretty good I have to say, I've been with them since the beghinning and to start with they were shockingly bad. Sorted out now, but their customer service can sometimes leave alot to be desired and a call centre where they understand English would be helpful too......

 

Sky here too. No idea what the cost is coz i get phone, line rental, tv, everything from them.

But its 16mb broadband and I'm regularly getting a proper 14mb out in the sticks so its perfect for me. No download limits (good for me as i download lots of legal movies and music).

Never had any times when it didn't work, in a year or so.

 

the thing with broadband depends on how close you are to the nearest exchange; for arguments sake, if 2 people have orange broadand. 1 lives next to the exchange and the other lives 3 miles from the exchange, the person next to the exchange will always get a better service

Same applies for new housing estates which are being built everywhere; the likelyhood of a exchange being close by is slim, therefore you get a shite service

I'm with BT and live just round the corner from the exchange, and i get an exceptional service, cannot fault it at all

 

BT are CUNTS! Had no end of problems with them plus the fucking useless help centre staff are idiots. They have absolutely no idea what they are doing even when you tell them exactly what the problem is, you end up getting passed around for hours on end.

I'm probably moving to o2 shortly, fed up with BT.

 

BTinternet here with homehub had it 10months with no hastle (touch wood) but I got my parents on tiscalli the weekend and thats cheap and quick with a free wireless thingy

 

I live about 8 miles from my exchange and get great speeds. But our exchange does only deal with 22 phone numbers. 3 more and they have to upgrade us to a newer fancier exchange woo hoo

 

www.madasafish.com - not cheapest but fantastic service and i stay connected.

 

i am with orange as well no problems with it and its only £5 a month

 

£25? is that because you have the TV as well? i have virgin 20meg BB and i pay £38 a month

 

20meg!! does it load pages before you type them out lol.

 

Im with madasafish too. So far cant rate them highly enough!

Couldnt get BT even if i wanted, tried to phone their sales team and they kept putting me on hold and eventually cutting me off. Wankers lol

 

Unlimited Virgin 20Meg here too, also got XL telly package, phone line, call divert & all non premium rate calls free all day - costs roughly £43 per month!!

Has gone down a handful of times in the past 5-6 years but its never for very long!!

 

Sky and Plusnet

Would reccomend either we've 80 odd nationwide accounts with plusnet and have had little issues - cheap too

 

Im with bt not had any promlems for the 6 months its been on and its free

 

www.bethere.co.uk the best value for money isp around imo. SIgn up through quidco and you get some money back as well!

 

Have a moan about being a good customer etc and they cut the price to £25.

 

why yes, all the problems were at my end, but because no fooker has a clue in their admin, when you call they just repeat the smae shit over and over again

you'll change your tune when there is a problem and you wait 2 months for it to be solved

 

I pay £37 a month for my 20meg service from Virgin

 

just an update on my 02, connected with ease from aol, didnt even notice any downtime.

i have 3 times the speed now, i know it has to settle so in a few weeks i should know what speed it will be.

im on wireless as well, i couldnt get that with aol for some unknown reason.

router is easy to set up, in fact the whole thing is easy to set up.

customer support was excellent, had a problem with a channel on the router and they sorted over the phone within 5 minutes!!

hopefully i wont be using the 100 day cooling off period, excellent so far

 

if u want no hassle connection, great service, www.madasafish.com

 

virgin media as been the best by far for me

 

Any idea if you get domain hosting or webspace with O2? I couldn't see any mention of either on their website.

 

im only paying £20 a month it was £10 for the first 3 months special offer and im on 20 meg unlimited broadband only

 

nope cant see it listed on my package details either, but this was not on my wanted list.

 

virgin media for me, no probs at all really...

 

im with tiscali till tuesday then i switch to o2, tiscali is shite supposed to be on 8 meg but rarely see 1meg and im only 650 yards from the exchange

 

Have been with ECLIPSE for about 7 years and had no problems whatsoever. Brilliant customer service too [based in the UK].
