Hi.
Im moving to a new property this Tues/Weds. Of course i will need broadband. Problem is i'll be only in that property no more then 12month if that. So i do not want to be tied into a 12/18 month contract.
And yes i will not be getting a Landline as i do not need it. so that will play a big part. Most broadband providers require you to have BT Line... Which sucks imho.
Ideally 1-3 month/rolling contract or mobile brodband.
So, i need help/advise what will be best/value for money please.
Thanks.

Probaly because fixed broadband is delivered down a phone line.
Apart from Virgin Media Broadband only if you live in cable area.
True that. Yea Virgin are the only other Broadband provider, but dont want to be tied into 12month contract as im not too sure how long i'll be in the property.0 -

Look in to '3' mobile broadband, 15gb for £15, cheapest deal around at the moment. Go via dialaphone and get 9 months half price. Ive recently signed up to it after being with their payg without a problem0

Handy thing is it goes with you, so your address/digs is irrelevant with it, so a contract isn't too much of an issue
