BT Broadband
I've been with Virgin for years but I moved house 18 months ago and had a number of problems so I need to move on. My neighbours and I have noted constant connection drops and outages. I also hear similar for Sky. BT Seems to get good reviews (in my area) but comparing them, they seem relatively expensive when I think I…

How to come up with compensation amount
Hello. Following up on my other post about problems with my ISP (Vodafone), I finally was promised that I'll be allowed to leave them without paying anything and once that happens we can talk about any compensation. While I wasn't entirely happy they can't do it before I leave them (they initially told me once I leave they…

Anyone know how to email Virgin media?
I've had terrible experiences with Virgin Media previously - too many and varied to list here, but am now happily at the end of my contract. Tried calling them this evening and couldn't get through so will try again tomorrow, but does anyone know any way to actually contact them in writing? So strange that a communications…

I am with virgin media and have got good deals with them in the past due to bargaining or leaving the company and then being called back with a better deal. I wanted to know, if this time I am…

I rang BT to enquire about switching my service to them and was told that as my area was ready for fibre to the premises that would be the only service I would get. But I neither need or want fibre to my house, I just wantt to keep my existing…

I've been assessing my options but am finding it difficult to get a single piece of information I need. My requirement is simply to be able to bar all international outgoing calls. I've stayed with BT for many years because they offer this facility, but whenever I ask another provider I either get ignored or a negative…

Plusnet annual line rental cancelled
We are in an 18 month contract with Plusnet for phone and fibre broadband which finishes in Feb 2023. Apparently we will no longer be able to pay annually for our line rental upfront and this is one of the reasons or incentives why we stayed with Plusnet. It is more the convenience of keeping down costs over the year and…

NowTv phone & broadband renewal
For the 3rd year running Nowtv have kept the cost of my phone, which includes anytime calls & broadband at the same rate. With other companies I've used over the years, there's always been an often hefty price increase when the contract is up for renewal. I haven't got fibre, but I'm quite happy with what I have for the…

Sold on faster broadband but not provided the equipment for the speed
Hi, Plusnet sold me on Unlimited Fibre Extra when my previous contract with them was nearly up in 2018. It has come to my attention that they should have upgraded the modem and router - without the upgrade I can't get the service I have been paying for. I phoned Plusnet today and they agreed to send the newer/correct…

I renewed my contract with VM for 18 months on 4/1/22 with the new contract starting on 3/2/22. On 10/1/22 - six days after agreeing the renewal, VM notified me that the monthly charge would increase by £4 wef 1/3/22. I've been given 30 days to walk away from the contract without penalty. This is in accord with clause K of…

Vodafone Superfast100 Broadband / City Fibre - experiences ?
Hi,The MSE link to the Vodafone Superfast100 broadband winter sale offer ( ending on the 27th Jan) seems very good, but was always a bit wary of Vodafone from their past reports of poor service across the board. Looking on Vodafones own forum there seems lots of complaints about failed installation dates compounded by the…
