How Much Do You Pay For Your Broadband?

Then your business is a smart one
Leased lines are a smart move for a business as long as you can afford it, saying that you cant put a price on uptime and reliability for your business.Unfortunately you cannot force customers to pay for a service they dont want to choose no matter how much you tell them, so the next best thing would be to sell them dual lines with a firewall that does line fail over and load balancing, or a bonded connection. However there is still that element of risk.
We have got a few small customers with leased lines, but more are the medium to larger businesses.
Unlimted maybe?
Be Unlimited and Be Value are unlimited...
Indeed
As per their website, iv also downloaded 200gb in one month on a few occasions and never had an an issue
Why oh why
I know
, have no choice, no one else is any beter where I live, I did have BT engineer out to it this monday just gone, he was here 3-4 hours as he said something must be wrong, but he never found anything that fixed it, he was going to put me on a new line from the exchange but the snow put a halt to it and he said I be best to ring back BT when weather has cleared some, am ringing BT later today to complain and get the engineer to come and do the new line

You may be able to gain some extra speed, have you removed the bell wire from your master socket? assuming you are not using a really old phone?
I know you might not get as much gain as I did as your connection might not be able to handle it, but removing the bell wire took me from a 14.5mb connection to a 19mb connection
Its certainly worth a go, even if its a 1mb bump
Post your stats, I have a feeling you're on Annex M and it's hampering your speeds...
Be Unlimited has Static IP and 1Mbps upload and is cheaper.
Surely that suggests that you need to switch to a service that has a lower ratio of users?

well BT recently re did the line inside the house and I watched him and he only connected two wires, I asked why and he explained it will give a better broadband speed leaving out the bell wire, so thats all ready done but thankyou for the suggestion
I'm gonna give BT one last chance to sort this out, just had Talk Talk (as I had been to there site and popped in my details) ring me saying they will be able to supply upto 8MB at this time of night guaranteed, as they say there infrastructure is in my local exchange, but as far as I know it is all BT's in our local exchange, this will be my next route if BT fails.
Best to just ring them up. Like I thought we would have to pay the £7 more for the HD channels. But the twitter team upgraded me to some VIP pack for £3.50 more and we got the HD channels and unlimited landlines calls
What exchange are you on bud?
