BE or o2?

[Dimi]

Afternoon ladys and gents,

I'm currently with Virgin, not a happy bunny though..

We got a post this past week saying we could reconnect back to BT for a merely £29.99 instead of the £129.99 it usualy is, i'm definitly taking up the offer as i've had enough of Virgin and their constant slowing down of the NET at prime times.

Not going with BT's own Broadband, but going with either BE/o2. These two look brilliant for the service they offer, But a question here.. Which one do i go with?

I'm in the Kingsland Green Exchange which BE/o2 supports,

So i'd guess i won't have any problems with the speeds, i did do a speed test with BE and it did say i could get 16meg speeds.

Thanks in advance for the replys
Kind regards, Dimi

'£29.99 instead of the £129.99'

i got it for free as i chose to have a 12month contract with bt.

im with be, been good so far but been quite slow (hi ping) recently.
be/o2 are the same company go for the cheapest.

if u do go for either, remember to use quidco to get cash back

O2 are the parent company of Be.

Go with O2, cheaper and their support is a little better being UK based. Plus go through quidco.

Also buy a sky DG834GT modem/router off ebay, re-flash with new firmware and tweak your new connection as you please, it is much better than the BE/O2 box.

As a side note, parents are with Be, I'm also with them, but will be moving to O2 in january once I renew my flat rental or move towards Ealing way for a new flat.
