Does that mean yes ?

Well......It means yes, you can get adsl broadband. But that's all - there is no o2 adsl2 etc option.

And the plus net £6 deal won't be available.

If that link you put up to samknows is your exchange, then you will only get the o2 access.

That is not flavour of the month!

The price I pay (excuse the pun) for living in the countryside, methinks ...

Cheapest Plusnet available & not a lot of peer to peer action is looking the most likely, am sure it'll be fine ....

Quentin

Are you sure about the cheapest plusnet?

Have you checked the small print that comes with the offer? Don't ignore the *!

* Plusnet Value broadband starts at £5.99 a month for the first 3 months. If you live in one of our low cost areas you'll then pay this price every month. If you live outside of one of these areas you'll then pay £11.99 a month thereafter.

I can't see many others cheaper than them tho, Quentin, even at £11.99 .... plus no connection charge and a few quid back from Quidco ?

Ok - last thought on plusnet: they are really owned by BT, and have recently changed their whole approach.

Previously (prior to bt taking them over) they had a good reputation, had no minimum contracts, no speed restrictions etc. Last month they brought out the cheap deal, presumably so BT can compete with talk talk and o2 without lowering their BT branded prices. But changed overnight to minimum 18 month contracts.

Read up on their current users views at either the plusnet users forum on the plusnet site, or the plusnet forum at thinkbroadband.

Hi cornish

Just a thought....

Did you have a look at thinkbroadband ? There are other adsl providers that won't appear on uswitchbroadband, for example newnet, who offer a monthly package for £11.70 a month and 4thenet who have a £9.99 (+VAT) a month offer just coming out.
