Hi bomber2

Are you looking for the cheapest or realiability etc.? There are some very cheap deals around at the moment, but some of the feedback isn't great.

If you post how much you would be prepared to pay, what sort of download levels you use etc. then it would be easier to come up with some suggestions.

All the best

" cheapest " usually relates to worst with BB providers.;)

Looking for reliable BB service with calls but no TV included.
Unlimited would be good.

and for "unbiased" reviews and rating/cost

Hi,

At the moment I am paying through the nose with Pipex for 576kb broadband internet and free 24/7 landline calls. (Line rental paid seperately to BT).

I am wanting a 8mb speed and the free landline calls 24/7 as well. But who should I go with. I dont want any usage caps like talktalk do with the 40gb allowance. And hopefully one whereby linerental is inclusive so aint having to mess about paying bt as well.

can anyone recommend anyone decent that I aint gonna have a lifetime of trouble with?

and stay away from virgin BB...the service is frequently down, CS is horrendous, the advisors are based in india, with no idea whatsoever on what is happening over here, which just works you up more...and to top it all off,..you have to pay them 25p a minute for the pleasure of talking to the jokers.

Hi indierocker

Your speed will depend on your line, so you will get "up to 8mb" from a lot of providers, some of which can do the line rental and calls package.

What sort of usage are you expecting to make?

All the best

Currently pay £40 a month with Virgin Media, which I'm fairly happy with. I get unlimited anytime landline calls, broadband, the biggest tv package and a V+ box.

However when I move I'm going to be on a smaller budget. I could probably downsize the TV (don't want to though ) but I'd like to keep unlimited calls and I still need internet althouh it doens't need to be particularly fast.

Is there a better bargain to be had? Or shall I stick with what I've got?

I am with Eclipse and they offer a very reliable and stable broadband.

I pay £14.99 for unlimited 8Mbps Evolution broadband + £5.99 for telephone (unlimited calls for 02 & 01 numbers anytime) + no contract.

I fully recommend Eclipse

Don't know whether it is permitted in this site (mods please instruct), but Eclipse has a refer a friend (RAF) scheme. Let me know if you are interested in migrating to Eclipse and when can share the incentive.

Hope this helps.....
*They are offering 1 month free when you switch

Hello, i have the new e-mail regarding the 6/month sky package and it looks ok but its extremely hazy

What is the best way to get the cheapest package that includes:
Broadband - Minimum 5gb / month as i feel 2 would be too low as i download alot! UNLIMITED atm
Phone - Doesnt matter we can discard but if its extremely cheap then include
TV - The best tv package offered for the money

Price is the bigguest issue but then quality is a matter especially in the TV range and then broadband is a requirement not on speed but on monthly allowance

This is for my parents as im given the task to search... so far i have found sky to be pretty good but all their feedback says they are extremely bad
