whos your broadband provider

[Laura]

trying to save money off our house hold bills so just reevaluating the internet,
we got it when it 1st came out so we pay £25 a month with bt
unlimited downloads etc

so who provides yours and how much is it

 

[Griff]

Depends where you live.

Little point asking for suggestions as cable, LLU may not be available in your area any way.

Add your postcode and then your on the right track.

 

[Adam]

If you have got a wide selection of LLU providers in your local exchange then your in busniness, and fingers crossed Be There are in your neighbourhood

 

[Laura]

south manchester area, we can get sky, ntl etc etc,

Go to this site and go to broadband checker. This will tell you all of the ISP's in your area.

 

[The Hoff]

I was with Newnet who have been brilliant, but have now switched to UKFSN (Entanet reseller) who come well recommended. Also recommend IDnet as a solid ISP.

(The above is assuming you're in a non-LLU area)

 

[Pettsi]

Virgin media! (ntl) used to be ntl?

 

[Sheilas’ Wheels]

Virgin media, we pay £29 all in for digital, (with lots of channels) home phone and unlimited broadband.

[Lagerlout]

My Sky has been excellent for £5. Not one problem in 12 months - Very reliable and very fast - (850-900 KB/s on 8Mb)

 

[Longy]

Don't go with Virgin Media ADSL whatever you do! I've just signed up with them and they are awful!!! slow speeds pings of about 300ms!! I've managed to get out of the contract quickly before I got stuck in a 12 month one.

I'm now in the middle of getting migrated to plusnet pro (get a free xbox360 game aswell woot)

 

[mas]

GDi provide mine, faster and more reliable than every other company.

Correct me If I'm wrong but isnt Virgin ADSL via IP Stream???

Same here. It has it's slower days, but that's more down to the over subscribed exchange I expect. Even it's slower days are more than enough. For £5 a month for 8mb and a 45gb cap I reckon it's a bargain.

Never have any problems with XBox, Wii or PS3 on it either.

[Adam]

^ Yep thats who I am with. Un-matchable imo.....

 

[Griff]

Needless to say I'm going to say Be* as well..

 

[Marky_]

[LeeJSA]

I'm with Virgin Cable - 20MB Broadband, XL TV Package, Unlimited calls on home phone inc call divert - £44 per month

I've just signed one of my customers up to www.bethere.co.uk & been very impressed with their service - for those that dont know they have just been bought out by 02.

June 2006, so quite a while ago.

 

[LeeJSA]

Well there ya go - I only found that out a couple of months ago! LOL!

 

[172blue]

Sky - no complaints and it is totally free, download as much I want, never been an issue.

 

[quikshine]

im with orange unlimited.. £5 a month because of having a mobile contract. Could be free, but I didnt want to download limit of 3gb I think.

HOWEVER... Im not that impressed with the service..its always cutting out.

Previously I was with tiscali, which hasnt been mentioned yet and I couldnt say a bad thing about them.. they had me and recently my auntie up and working within 5 days, 5 days earlier than they told me so I was pleased.

What's the advantage of LLU?

I can get Sky in my area and I'm seriously considering it (limited to 4.5mbps tho).

Well at present IP stream (BT suuplied Broadband) is limited to 8mb and LLU providers say for example Sky can go upto 16mb as it is their equipment in you local exchnage and not IP stream. Also people like Sky, Virgin and so on just re-sell an IP stream connection under their own brand if their LLU isnt available.

 

[Adam]

So in your case it is probably IP stream labelled as Sky.

 

[Andy.1.2-16v]

Same here

Cheers - Samsknows does say my exchange is LLU enabled for Sky though.

Will check with them before I make any moves.

Cheers.

 

[172blue]

Cant fault sky's speed or connection. I was with orange and it was always slowing down or cutting out all together, especially in the evenings, just when you need it!!

Who has advised you that you are limited 4.5mb??

If they mean you cant go any higher than this then it will indicate that you have a really long line so you wont be able to get the greater speeds like 16mb.

 

[Moby]

Sky - when I put in a phone number into their checker.

I don't have a BT phone in my flat yet so I used a neighbours number to check it out.
