Need fibre optic broadband

thelawnet

I currently use Post office broadband and phone and get around 6mbit. I would like a faster package.

I don't have or want any tv package.

I would like an unlimited broadband package.

I can get fibre optic, I would prefer to avoid BT and wonder who has a good price?

What are your LLU options? Do an exchange search on www.samknows.com to find out. If available LLU, Sky is the obvious FTTC option. Otherwise look at non-LLU options such as Plusnet. All will be cheaper than BT.
Or are you in a VM cable area?

EE seem to have a reasonable price. Are they good?

You can take a VM service with just phone and broadband, the TV isn't compulsory (though the pricing is heavily weighted to encourage you to take a triple play bundle).
Your LLU options are Sky or TalkTalk.
EE is just a resold BT Wholesale product.

Just contacted EE, they said they could install 29th November.

Seems quite a long wait.

probably openreach install anyway so standard lead time

3-4 weeks is a perfectly normal leadtime.
