Pearl Ram Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 We ain't got it in leafy Hertforshire (well, this part of it anyway) ain't got gas either, both Virgin and British Gas say there ain't enough houses in the area for them to warrant putting it in.

gcdcfc28 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 All the providers listed either have crap customer service or a poor router. I'm on Infinity and before this month had maxed out speeds of 80mb (upload 18). Now all of a sudden it's dropped to around 50 without any explanation. The throttling with BT is over the top too, but there's ways to bypass it 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' /> Sky don't throttle as far am i'm aware, but I couldn't get fibre with them (no idea why) so left and had Infinity. Can't comment on Virgin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram@Lincoln Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Virgins for cable customers only init? We have Virgin, there's a bit on their website something like "not cabled" and you can get quotes for internet through your landline. I'm not cabled but have nice fast internet with them.

Alph Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I'm on BT and i hate it. Used to be Sky. No complaints with them tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hucknall Ram Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I have Sky, have trouble with the router and the prices are slowly creeping up. With the router I can connect for a short while with a OK strength signal in my attic (bedroom) then the connection will disappear, then appear on my list of network to connect to, then is "unable to connect" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rams_Forever86 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Do not get BT unless you are getting Infinity as they do loads of things to try and get to upgrade like having the phone signal connected to the Internet so everytime someone rings you the connection goes.But if you have infinity its really good and quick im told.Sky can be equally as good.But it depends whether you are ordering the tv with the broadband if so the Sky then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Sky for Ages then due Cutting back found BT was the cheaper option good at first but the Internet always comes and goes. IF you havn't got a clue what im on about dont reply? Ps-My Brother works for a Telecom management service and deals with complaints and orders all day so i think i have a great source of a wide range of evidence.Whereas all you have is how it works for you not everyone.
