Looking for a cheap Mobile Broadband deal - but not Three
I’m looking for an “Unlimited” mobile broadband offer. I
currently have exactly that from Three for £16/month but it’s flaky and has
become impossible to use with mildly geeky things like FTP. (I’ve checked very carefully that it is a problem with Three’s
network that’s impacting me and others. Three support seem incapable…

4G Mobile Broadband
I’m hoping that someone can help me understand my best options here. i have moved to a rural location. There is a strong 4g signal on three and so far I have been tethering, but it’s a faff not having a full time signal and the phone battery being drained etc. Three will offer unlimited data 4g mobile broadband, 24mth…

Her 'landline' phone is plugged into her router, and works as it did when she had the original 'copper'…

BT are so annoying!
My BT
contract was approaching the end and I was currently paying £38/mth for Fibre 1
(FTTC) at 50Mbps. I rang up to see if they could offer me a better deal for the

Broadband vs Mobile Data
I was moved from supported living to my own flat a while back, thus far I find broadband unaffordable and have a few questions. Is it worth buying a router that can support a SIM card and if so how much data would I need each month (assume basic browsing and subscription streaming)? I saw 100gb sims but have no idea if…

Rebel Internet
Just wanted to share my experience of these people. It happened yesterday so is still extremely fresh. Rebel Internet worked ok speed wise – well for 15 minutes – but if you're considering steel yourself for a day lost & huge frustration cos you’ll need to rely on your own abilities. They take payment up front. According…

Ultrafast Broadband recommendations? Plusnet?
Hi We're looking at getting Ultrafast broadband, but unsure who to go with. I'm tempted by Plusnet because of their low prices, but concerned about reviews and customer service. Their website talks about their award winning, UK based customer service, but Trustpilot gives them a 2.2 (poor) rating which is putting me off.…
