BE Broadband

Hi,
I recently changed from tiscali broadband to BE broadband and found a major difference. Tiscali could only give me around 1.5 meg speed
when i was only 1km away from the exchange! This i was paying £13 a month for!
I am now with BE who is a part of 02 and I get 7 meg speed as tested on speedtest.net
whilst paying £13.50 all in with no download limit!
I have only been with BE for a week now, however no problems as of yet :T
Please note if you are with 02 for your mobile, then it's worth looking at them for
broadband as you get a better deal, £7.34 inclusive of vat with no download limit.

I've been with Be* now for about 2 years. BEST.....ISP.....EVER
o2 offer basically an identical service, probably because its the same company, slightly cheaper than Be if you use o2 mobile you get a discount.
However I went with Be, because they have more "tweaking" options for you line, for those technical people out there. Plus Be also has a more friendly user base, good forums, and their own live chat rooms.
There is no other ISP for me, cheap, no capping, no usage limit, only a 3month contract, no connection fee if recommended by an existing member, fast and reliable connection, and good support. What more can you ask for?0 -
I'm with O2 (Be's sister network), just started my second year with them, re-signed for another 12 months as they offered to give me 2 months free, seeing as I had no intention of changing my isp in any case I'm fairly happy

Worth mentioning, AOL flatly refused to do anything like that when I was with them for over 3 years, no offers or incentives to stay.
No regrets about changing to O2 at all, I would recommend their LLU network to anyone.0
