EE have just announced (after only recently putting my BB up £2 a month) that they are increasing my BB by £4 a month at the end of March which will make it over £32!

Onestream increasing tech support charge
I’ve been with Onestream less than a month but would like to return to Plusnet as I can now get full fibre and the Plusnet package offers far more for less cost, and will probably be a better service.

So…Why can't you get as good speeds…

Vodafone upgrade cancellation
I am with Vodafone and was sent an email to upgrade. I looked into it and it seemed like a great deal. I could upgrade my broadband from 150mb to 500mb for a monthly fee less than what I was already paying.

BT - early termination
Can I use BT’s determination to switch me to Digital Voice as a reason to terminate early without excessive fees (expires Aug)? Their service has been bugging me for ages and I’ve been planning to switch. Now they keep sending me routers to switch to Digital Voice which I keep having to send back; I’ve told them multiple…
