    We have just finished with BT and as my husband has an 02 contract phone, we have moved to O2 mobile (backed by Be Unlimited) at £7.50 a month 8 mgb
    They will assess our speeds over the first month, and if they think we would benefit from the 16mgb at £10, they will email us

  • well i have to agree i,ve been with bt for about 18 mths now,probably not the cheapest but i've had no problems at all.we've just gone wireless with the phone and hub,but not had the vision box,as we have freeview in the tv (mind you it's not bad for the recording i suppose )

    Sorry I thought that this was a money saving forum! It's actually very easy to change ISP's as BT don't want to make life difficult for themselves and the MAC system works well in 99.9% of transfers. Personally I think that it's an urban myth that BT broadband is better than most of the hundred odd other providers but as a BT shareholder, I don't object to you paying though the nose for your "service".

    To be fair I get very shuddery at the thought of LLU services. Stuff seems to go wrong all teh time on it, but thats from personal experiance. :P

  • I've just been arranging to move from BT to Sky, while trying to get a MAC code a lady at BT offered to drop my Option2 Broadband down from £22.99 a month to £14.99. So it's worth phoning up to get a code even if you then decide to take something they offer.
