I have got my package upgraded, they are giving 14mb for £15 a month and free modem and stuff, not that i will use it. However the cap is still on tonight, so i will give them an earful tomorrow to take off the cap as i was promised it would go with the update. It is a new contract i will be starting as well, so if i dont get a promise that with the new package that starts tomorrow there will be no cap, im leaving.
Well, other companies cant offer the same speed as BT, if you can believe that, plus its less money a month, tbh, in sepember there will only be 2 people living in the house, so the usage will be low. In 12 months if there are companies offering ADSL2 speeds in my area i will revisit it, but Be wont be available for at least 5 months. Also, Virgin dont offer a service in my area, the other providers are rubbish, sky, talk talk and a random one. Its either Be or BT, remember, if i cant get the cap off tomoz i will be going with Be, its just i would like more speed and BT are the only onces offering it, especially at £15 a month.
What i meant was, that Be doesnt have ADSL2 kit in at my exchange, so its a 8mb max, also the contract goes live tomorow and i have until the update to cancel, so basically about 1pm, its a 12 month deal as well.
Good god man, you went over 100GB in a month!!!
No, there not just going to make an exception for you, if they don't have an option for it then you can't get it atm. If you want higher than 100GB I'd look towards the 50Mb service from Virgin (Don't ever go lower than 50Meg as those services have throttling which is horrific OMG OMG OMG JIZZ from Virgin).
BT have a Live chat feature on their website now, search on google, try it on Monday when their open.
Exactly. If that's not enough then you can always upgrade to 50 megs, which isn't much dearer at all. If you're out of contract you can often swing a deal that ends up cheaper overall as well. I <3 my 50 meg line.Virgin don't have a 20 MB service, it's 20 Mb.
I partially agree, but still feel that 3.5 GB between 4pm and 9pm is a bit draconian. A family of four using iPlayer YouTube etc. can easily hit this limit very quickly, especially if it's iPlayer HD. That said, the 5Mb cap still provides a decent enough speed for most activities and probably still beat 90% of ADSL services.
Switching from Bt to BE? Going to have a small shock to the system m8![]()
1gb a day isn't enough? Not to menchen that I doubt its evenly split out of the 100gb. What the hell are you downloading. I don't know how i'd possibly use 1gb a day. You say steam games but thats a one off thing. Unless you like to uninstall them for fun? YOu must be pirating films and box set series non stop. Thats the only way you could ever get through that much.
I'd go with Be. The only ones who don't speed cap.
