Moving house - cancel O2 bb or move over?
I've been with O2 for just over year, very happy with service, but will be moving house later this year. I see that there is a moving house process on their website. I've checked that the area we're moving to has the same level of O2 bb, so is it better to use the moving house option, or can I cancel and then open a new O2…

Do Virgin have a cooling off period?
Does anyone know if Virgin Media have a cooling off period if I change my mind (i.e. if cashback doesn't track)? I can't find anything on their website that mentions it and the 'live chat' doesn't seem to be working. Thanks!

BT Homehub 2.0 - driving me mental!
How far away can you be to get a decent signal? We started getting our signal on Friday and everything was fine - the hub was in the living room (about 5m away from my laptop).

Titan ADSL: poor service and won't issue MAC code!
I'm getting increasingly frustrated with Titan ADSL. Initially the service was pretty good, which is why I stuck with them even though they aren't the cheapest.
