Replacement for BT Openzone?
I am just in the process of moving from BT to Virgin for broadband ('up to' 50 Mb beat 'up to' 20 Mb with 'if you are getting 2 Mb we think that is good'). I use BTOpenzone, £5 per month for wireless access outside the home when there is no free access available. However I think I lose that when I lose BT Broadband. Does…

Can I keep my old freeserve email address if I switch from Orange to O2
I'm thinking of making the move to the O2 Premium 20MB deal as I'm currently paying just over £18 a month to Orange for a 8MB broadband package they no longer offer new customers. I've put off switching because it's going to be a huge headache notifying businesses I use but obviously I'd be a fool if I remained on the…

Anyone have any knowledge of the above company and there traffic shaping policies? The salesman was banging on about the unlimited nature but he seemed a bit dodgy regarding any traffic shaping... The info that is out there is seems contradictory to say the least :(

Get out of your Sky BB contract free...
Sky are changing the terms of their contracts for Sky Talk & Sky Broadband & it appears that if you're not happy then you can opt out without penalty but must let them know at least 7 days before 29th March... Might be worth canceling & then signing up again using the 6 mth free offer floating around...... ;) I'll see if i…

Apologies but this is going to be a bit long in the tooth :o .

We're buying our first home and hopefully it should complete in the next few weeks. I've been looking at what to do for the phone line and the internet.
