Current Plusnet broadband with landline finishing soon - what are the options?
Our current broadband deal with Plusnet is finishing in the next month. It includes the landline, which we really dont use and only gets rung by spam, my father or our eldest son. Everyone else uses mobile. Plusnet are offering us a deal without the landline, in preparation for the switch off over the next 2 years. It's…

Why can't you see if there is anything worth watching on Netflix without subscribing first
I was thinking of re-subscribing to Netflix, but it seems it is Netflix's policy to not let you see what shows and movies they have until you pay for a monthly subscription, but I am not sure if they have anything I will be interested in watching. I thought I must be missing a link somewhere on the site that will show me…

Virgin Media rip off, not bothered about cancellation
My partner has just had a letter from VM saying that her contract has ended and the monthly bill is going up to £68.77 for a basic package. I just looked online and they offer new customers the same package but with double the internet speed for £31.99. She has just called them and they said £62 a month was the best they…

Lyca Mobile MSE blagged offer
Having seen people comment about the Lyca mobile website being a bit dodgy occasionally when it comes to sign up/payments etc, can anyone vouch for/advise on the Lyca "MSE 1" offer? (Or any other blagged Lyca offer) I saw it listed on the MSE comparison tool for SIM deals. The offer (at time of writing) listed for the MSE…

What has happened to my Landline?
After finding phone not working yesterday, saw a guy up the telegraph pole, removing the round white things and my cable. Then 'caught' him hanging over the garden. Presumably some sort of new cable from pole to house, but no communication of any sort.

Emails destroyed!
Decided to terminate contract for my landline with Plusnet a few weeks ago as I wasn’t using it. The contract was for landline and broadband and the cost had increased by quite a bit. The broadband speed was not good. On the 7th June it ceased, and a few days later went to check my emails only to find there was nothing at…

BT Price Increase
I cannot understand what the new price increase actually is. You get a bill will a ton of information but no where I can find does it say "we increased you payments by x%" or "the price per minute has gone up by XXpence". Has anyone worked out from what I regard as a purposely obfuscating bill what the price rise for a…

Any way I can use my Broadband connection with Virgin to tell them my landline is down?
Hi, Been with Virgin for years, they are fine when something goes wrong with te BB or TV, simply ring 150 and they get on it. When the phone goes down however, ringing from a mobile puts you in an endless tech support queue, and they don't have a simple way to emai Tech support, or a web form to let them know! Managed…

Switching network - have I left it too late?
We are off to Spain first thing on Thursday morning - and far too late in the day, I realised that my current provider (Three) charges for roaming. Taking this as the trigger to finally get around to getting a better deal than I'm on - and avoid roaming charges - I ordered a new SIM from Lebara last Friday. It's not…
