I'm with 02 and have been for a couple of years now. I pay £7.50 a month for unlimited as long as i top up my mobile by £10 every 3 months.

That is for up to 8Mb. Where i live the best i can get is between 5Mb And 6Mb.

Anyone know of a better deal?
 
Probably the best deal available really. I'm on the same package as you and its brilliant for what it is.

If you have Sky TV and can get Sky LLU, then theirs is £7.50 as well, but it will be the same thing that O2 offer in the way of speed and usage.
 
I think its £11 a month, 10MB virgin. Some kind of deal with the tv and the phone usually comes to around 25 or £30 a month + call costs or something. Who knows!
 
No idea.. It says £45 and a £12 landline... But we also have a -£45 or something and another £-10 etc etc
Total cost for virgin media though a month is £96.50 though last mon £104...

What i am trying to say is this: Virgin and all the other companies may be flirting super fast broadband up to 20Mb. But that doesn't mean you will get that. It depends on where you live etc.

You and other people are paying for something you are not getting. Get my drift?

If you have Virgin cable, though, in a large majority of cases you really will get the speed you are paying for.

Yep. Always, all the time. 1.1-1.2 MB/s I've had this same connection since it was 300K -> 512 -> 1 -> 2 -> 10 and I always got the max speed quoted.

Even when I had 1/2 meg BY cable in 1999/2000 i got a solid 64KB/sec.

yep!
got the 50mb and get 6700Kb/s, had the 20mb and allways got a solid 2.2mb/s, i really couldn't stomach dsl/adsl or whatever it is, its so random and allover the place with its speeds.
 
I pay £0.00 for my Broadband and £0.00 for my free daytime evening and weekend calls package. In fact all I pay for is my line rental, mobile calls if I make any (I don't) and non Geo numbers. Past three months my phone bill has totalled £11.00 exactly.

Broadband supplied by your work rocks hard! 20 Meg Sky LLU, and I get 20 meg, although I think the cold weather is slowing my BB down!
 
also on o2 £7.50 a month for 8mb adsl,perfect for my needs as i get good ping to game servers and a decent download speed (actually sync at 7.5mb)
