madasafish - must be lots of us up for renewal?

hi

A year ago martin suggested that MAAF had a great BB deal and lots of us signed up, the year is up and I cant really fault them at all. However now we are at renewal time there does seem to be some better deals out there.

Such as 20gb at 8 meg for £12.76 a month.

Is anyone switching or been offered anything to stay?

I have been offered their 20gb package for £17.99 for 12 months.

What do you guys think?

cheers

    40Gb at up to 8mbs for £5.00 a month is what I've got with the Sky broadband mid package.
    I did have problems initially but now its working fine.

    I'm also up for renewal at the end of January, I have been looking around for a new broadband provider because I would like unlimited as I download quite a bit and with their 5Gb limit it's quite restricting.

    I have looked into Tiscali and NTL but others have said they're rubbish, just browsing the broadband forums http://bbs.adslguide.org.uk but it seems all ISP's can be good and bad in different ways.

    Maybe I'll call Madasafish nearer the time and see what deal they can offer. :)
  • Hi, my 12 mth contract finishes this month, so I've been looking around for something. I looked at Tiscali which is £9.99 a month for up to 1mb. But before I did anything I rang Madasafish customer care and told them I was looking for something cheaper but before I moved wondered what they could do for me and they said they would put me back on the original offer for the next 12 mths (ie £11.99 for the first six months, then normal tariff for up to 8mb). I pointed out I had had an extra £1 discount for moneysavingexpert users and she said OK I could have it for £10.99 a month for the first 6 mths. I've been extremely happy with Madasafish - so I'm delighted and I'll be staying with them.

    That's really good, maybe I'll give them a call and ask what they can do... the only thing is I really could do with unlimited, 5GB isn't really much when you're downloading stuff regularly. :)
