smallworld cable

Just to say that if you live in a smallworld cable area then you might be able to get decent internet for a better price.

I'm paying £19 + £12.50 for 10Mb cable, basic sky tv esq package and line rental (dont use the landline). 6 months free and a 12 months total contract. You can get cable internet only options if you want (no need to have a bundle).

Speed is as advertised. They do up to 50Mb but 10 is fast enough for me. ADSL on a BT line (BE* internet) got me about 4Mb with a following wind.

smallworld is not virgin (or a reseller).

    Good to see that there is still some competition to Virgin, all be it a bit niche.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
