Broadband Options

Posts: 65 Forumite


Hello.
Moving houses in a few weeks time. I have already used SamKnows website, and every Broadband suppliers/exchange is enabled in the new property. So that aint a problem.
I will not be a getting a BT line as i do not need it for the first 10months as i get unlimited landline calls on my mobile contract. If i need to ring a 0845/0870 then you have SayNoTo0870 website.
What i would like to know what is my best option. I will not be getting any Mobile/Dongle broadband as i am using it right now. And from experience its realy not all that.
Thanks.

For any broadband, you need a phone line installed (unless you have cable where you do not need a landline).What i would like to know what is my best option. I will not be getting any Mobile/Dongle broadband as i am using it right now. And from experience its realy not all that.

If you do not want mobile broadband, as it does meet your requirements then you are going to have to refer to my previous point, that you need a landline for any broadband (except cable).0 -
Yes Virgin Media is available. Did check on their website and i can get virgin broadband.
Would like to know, is virgin broadband any good? Do they throttle the line? Do you really get the speed they say?0 -
Go with bt and use the likes of o2 llu (quidco), or go with virginmedia, probably not much diffrence pricewise, o2 is unlimited downloads no speed cap but you may not get great speeds, virgin is unlimited downloads there are usage caps on all packages except 50meg but you will get the advertised speed unless you hit those caps.0
