new internet connection

I live in Essex and wants a new internet connection.

Talk Talk 3.25/mo + 14.95 line rental no connection fee

Virgin 15.99/mo + 14.99 line rental £42 connection fee

Sky 10/mo + 14.50 line rental £15 connection fee

BT 16/mo (free for 6months) + 15 line rental

I do see cash backs on quickdo for Sky and TalkTalk

with BT does the speed is higher compare to others? also forums says talktalk have more complains. any taughts?

    If you are getting adsl then the download speeds will all be similar. Virgin media is cable so these tend to be faster. You need to consider how much bandwidth you use. Sky do a unlimited package which is very reasonable. I used them for years. I am now on BT infinity but that is quite a big more. Both BT and SKY customer services have been fine with me but I have heard horror stories with Virgin. One thing to also know is that Plusnet is owned BT BT. Hope this helps.
