Well, I am fed up with BT, and it's not that I am that far from my local exchange either.
I used to get fairly close to the advertised "up to 16 Meg" speed with 14 Meg, but it's the drops that annoy me the most (especially when playing Modern Warfare 3, whilst being on a high killstreak, lol)
Now since I have phoned BT and gave them my 30 days notice, I'm down to 9 Meg.
April 24th can't come soon enough (which is the actual install date), really looking forward to 60 Meg
My mate who has been with them since forever did warn me though.
He said if I went over a certain limit during peak hours, Virgin would throttle my speed.
I asked to what?
"50%" he says.
I just said if thats the worst that will happen, thats still three times faster than what I'm getting now anyway, so it's win-win in my book
Yes, got TiVo
My package was for:
- Basic TV services, which included free TiVo box and service
- Basic Phone package, which includes Unlimited Weekend calls to landlines and certain numbers
- XL Broadband, which is the medium one at 60Meg.
6 months BB at half price, plus went to the Virgin online shop via a link from Top Cash Back and got an additional £62 cashback.
I love a good deal
Sounds good to me
I am in a new build with fibre optic connections only so I am limited to BT, luckily I get well over 100meg totally free as it is still officially a trial
