NEW Broadband connection help required

Options
:rotfl: Hi
I wonder whether you can help me, I have a BT line, and would like broadband connection - but there is so many to choose that I am not sure what to go for. I would like min 5gig downloads, and 2mb speed, so preety standard I suppose… I have a new BT line, so this has to stay, and I wouldn’t like to pay too much for the broadband. (I mean more than I have too) also are there any offers around like free laptop with orange sometime ago or free playstation or dell laptop with talk talk (I think) -
Thank you!!

    All these deals are just pie-in-the-sky until you know just what your bT line can support.. If you are close to the exchange, then no problem, but if you are a few miles out.... then you are struggling. Have a look at www.thinkbroadband.com and see if that helps.
