How to get Broadband and cheap calls in 2 houses for less than £20/ month
I use the Internet at 2 houses I don't use the internet a great deal So I've found the cheapest way to provide Internet in BOTH houses is to use a 4G USB dongle with a EE 4G 6GB Pay As You Go Mobile Broadband Combi Sim, bought through Amazon. I DON'T top it up, because the top up cost is more than a new SIM, so have…

I asked why they had contacted me direct and they said 'don't know' I complained and got fobbed off. Are they breaking…

Friend of mine is getting very low broadband speed (less than 1mb). She had an independent engineer out to test the internal cabling and he said that it was a BT problem.

Hi, due to the best broadband deals only being available to "new customers only" and following Martin's excellent advice about switching Broadband suppliers, I've amassed 5 ADSL routers from various companies. Any ideas what to do with these? The companies don't seem interested in collecting them and still insist that you…

Crooks at EE still charging for broadband, even though I switched
Hello, Whenever I switched before, I didn't need to call the previous supplier and cancel.

They say that they won't refund…

Warning When Cancelling Sky BB....

Due to my distance from the Exchange I just about managed 3.5mb, this was too slow for my needs so it was never used, I stayed with Virgin Media cable. I recently cancelled Sky…
