Why doesn't the BBC diversify?
I'm in the market for a new and reliable BB provider - ideally with landline and TV provision for a reasonable price.

Cancelling Virgin Media - Providing 30 days notice after the minimum term of contract has ended
A totally exasperating experience. My oomph 18 month contract came to an end earlier this month. I started out online wondering what revised terms I could sign up to.

Does MSE have doorstep cold callers?
Twice in the last few weeks, we've had someone cold call at the door saying they're from MSE, and on both occasions have asked about upgrading to full fibre broadband.
