Does sse want my custom?
On their site for broadband I need to enter my landlines in order to proceed. I don't have a land line. I've just moved into my new place. I tried calling earlier but was waiting too long.

Cancelling TalkTalk in Contract
Hi, I am in an 18 month contract with TalkTalk for line rental and broadband. With the recent price increase I believe this now gives me ground to cancel the contract early. How does it work though because it is the broadband that has been increased not the line rental but I bought them both as a package together? Another…

BT broadband connection issues
Hi all, Has anyone else had problems with connection issues with BT broadband? With regards to their new homehub, they are currently the only company out there openly advertising that 'if connection is lost we will get you back on'... I find this a little strange as no other company advertises that they lose connection and…

TalKTalk Foolishness
After waiting in all day for my broadband to be installed by TT, taking a day off work to do so, i had the following conversation with a representative on the TalkTalk website chat gizmo. At some point during the conversation i'd decided i was in conversation with a robot brain and feared if i didn't take it easy it would…

BT line rental and broadband/calls contracts out of sync . . . . . .
Hi, my BT line rental contract is up for renewal in May . . . . my BT broadband/calls contract is up for renewal in November. So I'm constantly in one contract or another. (I suspect it happened when BT once gave me an 18month contract for one of them). It's totally unsatisfactory, it makes it very difficult to consider…

BT's tactics to stop you from changing
I have decided to go with Talk Talk for my broadband. They are giving me unlimted broadband for free for 18 months. BT sent me a text and a letter saying that they will continue to subscribe me to BT Sport and I will continue paying for this unless I call them by 2pm 19th May (very specific) to cancel my subscription. I…

BT Sport frustrations
ARGH. I don't normally start messages with that.... June last year I decided to cancel BT sport as I didn't want to perpetually sign up for 12 month contracts with BT. It's all on DD so I tend not to check my bills.... Anyway I did this month to find that BT have been charging me on a monthly basis for BT Sport for the…

Sky Broadband Shield
I had the email about the broadband shield a week ago. It gave the chance to opt in or out, saying the option would be open for a week, after which switch on would be an option on the first occasion that I entered a site unsuitable for children. I made no reply as I don't have children , but don't use such sites anyway,…

£129.99 or monitor the line yourself!
I did check the forums about this, couldn't see anything. BT Broadband goes down this evening. Carried out all the self tests, rings 0800 800 150, speak to overseas tech help. They run through a test, find a line fault then say if they call out an engineer it will cost me 129.99 OR would I like to monitor the line myself?…

Boosting Virgin fibre optic speeds on wifi
Hello, i got told by Virgin that with their Fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) technology, you should get broadband speeds as they are advertised. So their 50mb connection should actually get you mind boggling download speeds of 50mb per second so that you can download a 1gigabyte file in 20 seconds! However, I actually only got…
