talktalk - not as easy for me
I am already a talktalk landline and home phone package customer. Want their broadband offer as well. Phone number I am using is an old cable number, but was transferred to BT for about 3 years before I went to talktalk a few months ago. Talktalk braodband sales people say I can't take their BB package. Their customer…
Internet explorer 7 very slow
Anyone else experiencing an extreme loss of browsing speed since installing IE7 beta 2? Before, I was using IE6 and that was considerably faster. Foolishly, in an attempt to rectify the problem I deleted a load of programs including IE6, so I cannot reinstall that. Has anyone found ways to rectify this problem? I believe…
please help, computer-challenged!!
I hope this is the right place to ask a few questions about switching my broadband and please excuse any daft/obvious questions!:o I've just reached the end of my contract with Onetel (£23.99 per month) and now have my migration-code. I've been looking around this board a bit and it seems that pipex and madasafish might be…
Broadband Up to xxMB - Beware of Pipex!!!
I have been with Pipex for a good couple of years, on their Pipex Solo 1mb uncapped package, for £23.44 per month. Great, no major problems, really happy with the service. About 2/3 weeks ago, I noticed that they were offering a new package Pipex Go, 2mb uncapped for £24.99. Brilliant! Double the speed for a quid more, and…

Bt recommend a friend
I have decided to go for bt broadband option 1 at £14.99 for the first three months. I have asked my nephew to recommend me so that we can both get £10 each. Also if I do it through my barclays online, I can get a reward of £20. Now am not sure whether I can take advantage of both offers. Does anybody know and whether the…
TAlk Talk pitfalls
Guys before you all head over to talktalk I have heard some very disturbing things about them. I'm currently with NTL and their service is great. If like me you are on cable check to see what speed your line is capable of before you switch, because my exchange is 3 miles away my line can only go up to 1meg. Also ntl only…
What exactly is a "BT Phone Line"?
Sorry for the silly question but what exactly does BT mean when they refer to a BT Phone Line? Is it the actual line or the service that goes with it? I'm currently with BT for both calls and broadband. I want to switch the call provider i.e. line rental, but not the internet (yet). But BT say on their website that I need…
Broadband lock-ins
Following the recommendations on Martins site to use Madasafish for Broadband I happily signed up with them at the beginning of the year. My phone line is now being changed to NTL from BT (out of my control) and they can't support me anymore. They want to charge me £94!!!!! to cancel. Does anyone else think this is too…
