Thinking of switching - wanadoo to AOL - help please

Hi,

We are thinking of switching our broadband from Wanadoo / Orange at £17.99 per month to AOL Silver Broadband at £14.99 per month plus £45 cashback from Quidco.

Is this a good move? Opinions please!!!!

    Any reason why you are switching away? We are switching from Wanadoo / Orange due to cost.

    There's a thread on here about getting orange to drop there price.. I was on the £17.99 deal and phoned asking for my MAC.They asked me why I wanted to leave and I told them they where not competetive anymore. They then offered me it at £12.99 on a 6 month contract.. I'm more than happy with that.. I had an e-mail comfirming this and the package they put me on is called the wanadoo staff package..

    Mainly cost. Plus the fact that since we upgraded to platinum, our spped had actually dropped. The new t&c's were a good getout clause for us.
