broadband for £10 per month?

gaahmad · 26 March 2006 at 5:31PM

I changed from Telewest to BT and am now with UKOnline for my broadband who charge £9.99 per month for their 1MB d/l speed and has no limits on the amount you want to download. Changing to BT also gives you free caller display and I have now applied for Primus Saver to get free evening and weekend calls to landlines.

I put 2 phone numbers (work n home) into ukonline site and cannot get the £9.99 package. I think this price is only limited to certain areas.

Telewest dont cap there services, any of them even the cheap ones, I'm 99.9% sure

CS are only for phoning to complain to and billing problems, and have no price power, phone broadband sales they have or had a free phone number, but i cant find it now, keep at them, and you will get a good deal. also say they had a £10 512k offer on there website ages ago and bang on about ukonline and euro1net.

and if you really cant get a good deal say to the sales person you want to quit right now, set a date and wait for a phone call, if you dont get one, phone the day before and say if you give it me for £10 i will stay.

i did this a while back and it worked for me.

I gave Telewest one more chance but just got the same story. I spoke to someone in Disconnections not CS. They checked the UKonline deal and said they wouldn't match it. Also said that ONLY the 14.99/2mb deal was uncapped.
BT were more than happy to resign me!

I live a stone's throw away from Arsenal FC and I'm assuming that I'll be able to sign up to ukonline once my line has been transferred

bad luck, but the tw website clearly states all services are uncapped!

i think it TW staff not selling an uncapped service encase ntl (who now own them) change the service, however i dont think they will

Hi peter, the "fair usage" is about 20gb according to many users on the adslguide discussion forums. There are very few people who download more than that.

Also I just signed my parents up to ukonline. I did it over the phone and they offered me 2 months free and a free netgear wireless router which I have now received and it is the super 108g adsl 2+ router! They don't advertise this on their website so if you are thinking of using ukonline then call up to see if they can offer you this.

Now that is a good deal! Shame I've already signed up with another ISP.

Although the 2mb and above services are not capped the 1mb 9.99 service is.
I also tried calling UKonline and asking about free modems. Was news to them and suggested it may be because they are doing a limited trial in a new area.
