Thread: Best Broadband

  1. #1
    I am fed up of 56k so I'm finally upgrading. But there are so many broadbands to choose from. What is best? I'm not allowed to spend more then 20 quid a month (on broadband)


    Anything over 300K would be awesome

    I'va actually heard poor feedback about central point broadband customer service.

    I recommend taking a look at www.adslguide.org.uk (especially the forums).

    I am looking for broadband myself at the moment (eyeing up 8MB from UKOnline but will have to wait till April.)

    Under £20? Well Hi-Velocity do 1MB for 23.99 and 512 for £19. Reports of excellent customer service and generally recommended.

    Other suggestions in ADSLGuide forums

    Hi

    I am also looking at getting a new isp as I am currently with bt and they are ever so kindly going to start capping in the new year.

    I was looking for a 1Mbit line but noticed that Pipex are running a trial for 2Mbit line for an extra few pounds (uk based btw, I suppose the bt bit gave that away )

    @Voetsek - how have you found the service, given the chance would you change or are you happy? any feedback would be appreciated thanks
