We live in the sticks but have a BT phone line and Sky tv, we cant get virgin media tv where we are and on checking with sky cant get cheap(£5?? or free) bb as the local exchange has not been upgraded. looking for ideas on where to got for bb and what is a good package for us. fairly new to this but got a mobile dongle (t mobile) at the mo that we have borrowed from a friend (which is realy realy slow ;-( ) and i want bb ;-)so far mostly what we do is go on here and facebook but i know otherhalf would like to play some games like gta online and i like timewasters like pop cap gameswe have 1 computer and 1 laptop (so will need wireless??yes?) so we can both go on at same timethanks for reading and thanks hopefully for your replies

    Dont know if this will be any use but worth a go.
    Simliar situation here with Sky but a workmate of mine managed to get the regular bb package out of them at the combined service price.
    However when another workmate tried it they didnt make the offer. Guess its down to how well you negociate with them.

    You could check out Talktalk - I've been pretty happy with them and phone and broadband is around £21 per month. You can use the postcode checker on their website to check if it is available in your area.
