Broadband/Phone provider

[Tizzi24]

I'm thinking of changing my provider, as Virgin are really expensive. I see that Tesco have a good deal at the moment and I wondered if any ABers use Tesco broadband/phone and whether they were any good.

|I seriously considered Tesco recently but was unhappy about the speed.|I eventually chosebTalk Talk and am well pleased. I too left Virgin...make sure you have still got a socket for telephone, as having been with Virgin you did not need one.If you do have one but it is not active beware that there is a charge to reactivate it. There is a way to get it done free, but it is not well publicised.Should you need to reactivate an old line I would only be too happy to let you know how.

We're with BT - there are a number of different packages and (touch wood) we are very pleased with it.

What's you view on Q2 people? are they worth changing to?

[boxtops]

I haven't heard of them, TWR

It depends what you want out of your broadband, I am guessing that you have the fibre optic from Virgin ( who are doubling their speeds this year) which is what I have and get a steady near to 10 mg permanent speed. It is a complex market and we all know that what these providers say they will give is not what we end up with . Not heard too much about Tesco, will watch your posting with interest.

I should have said, O2

02 looks a lot cheaper than BT, but it depends what you get for your money http://www.o2.co.uk/b...Epjin+_yBzp_zEpjw0zgf
