What exactly is this? How does it work?
Had a flyer through the door with no details of how it actually works or how much it costs offering speeds of up to 50Mb.
Flyer asks to call number to make an appointment or email a hotmail address.
Usually a bit wary of these things where you make an appointment and someone comes to visit because very often its a chance for them to give you the hard sell.
And hotmail address also rings the bells. It costs under £10 to get a domain name and email address so it doesn't exactly display a professional setup here.

Its someone organising a collective bid process to obtain cut price broadband for its members , similar to the ones organised for gas and electric by councils etc .
Look into it but have your wits about you and don't invite anyone to your house unless they give details first .0 -
Setup your OWN once-off Hotmail or Gmail account, and use that to email them for more info.

Hmmm. Found out that the email and phone number belongs to a small PC repair company here in the area.
Might be legit but I do wonder why they didn't use their own email address?0
