Sick of Virgin - any views on Orange?
Getting thoroughly fed up of Virgin (was with NTL) as they keep messing me about. Firstly was signed up for £8.99 for 12 months. My broadband was cut off after 9 months for 3 days and was impossible to get an answer from the Indian call centre. Eventually found out that is was because they had been sending one bill which…

I am a Naims broadband customer (£12.99 per month) so with all that's going on there I need to sort out a new provider, and we pay something in the region of £85 per quarter to BT for our telephone bill. I make it around £495 we are currently paying but if we go to Sky it…

TalkTalk STILL LYING to Customers-But getting better ???
Seems TalkTalk are still ripping off their customers. Don't believe the dates they give you. I was supposed to go live with them today. Their website even says my broadband is available today. However, no modem, no filters, no starter pack with installation CD. So rang them up. Their reply was 'Oh that's just your…

Supanet Broadband £7.99/month. 8Mb. Unlimited
I was with Supanet a year ago, but thanks to MSE I changed to Madasafish and got a faster line and lowered charges. Before migrating I offered Supanet the chance to reduce it's charges but they couldn't so I went with Madasafish. My 12 months were up them late Feb so I got a MAC code to migrate and offered them the chance…

Ntl/virgin Charges
I recently took up the broadband with NTL and the first bill came and told me had £10 to pay. I then called them and stated that when my mums account was closed the £80 credit was to be transferred into my account. Sounds simple. They agreed that they would credit my account with that £80. Fine and dandy. I got a letter…

All Virgin users
Virgin website states " there are two great ways to get broadband * by fibre optic cable ( on cable ) * or down your phone line ( non-cable ) Either way you can look forward to a better service............" There is nothing in the small print to say the offer of £10 a month for 2mb unlimited is only the price for cable.…
