advice re broband

devizes18193

At the moment i'm with sky for phone tv and broband . We are in wiltshire . Paying aprox £60 for all 3 is there anybody else that night be cheaper .If say i went with bt for example would there be any down time on the phone line or borband . The other thing i noticed some of these companies give out N routers . My kit is old G type .

Any advice welcomed

If you can get cable then I'd jump at the chance to go with Virgin.

I've only got mixed feelings about BT because I haven't used the service. Worth a try for 12 months though wouldn't you think?

Hasn't been a decent broband since the Jackson 5.


I'll get me coat:D


PS £60 seems a lot can you break down your charges?

what can i say i can't zpell .

Charges tv £20.50 2 packs
broadband £10
line rental £11.25
Call package £5.00
Call charges £8.79
The service we have had has been ok the main issue is cost driven

Couple of ideas,

Have only one entertainment pack, save £1.
Query your broadband charge, it should be £7.50 with calls, save £2.50.
Move to the free calls package, save £5.
Assuming you are paying line rental to Sky see if they do a line rental saver like BT, should get it down to around £10/ month.

Reduce the number of phone calls!

As penrhyn says your broadband should only be £7.50 certainly query this
If you can pay 12 months line rental in advance its currently £9.75 per month increasing 06/07/11

the broband wont necessarily be £7.50, that price change only came in last year and the op may have signed up when it was £10, not £7.50

Mind you, Sky are offering a 12 month half price deal at the moment. Press them and they'll give it to you. My mum did and she got it.
