o2 vs BE

[DiscoDave]

Hi All,

I've recently moved into a new house but a fair bit away from my local exchange. We can get about 4.5Mb/5Mb here.

I've got the choice of either o2 or BE.. As they run on the same network should I just go with the cheapest?

I think o2 monthly limit is 20GB a month whereas BE is 40GB a month (o2 standard/be value). If someone could confirm.

Thanks,

They're both unlimited, both share the same equipment and O2 should be cheaper if you have a mobile phone with them also (or just borrow someone's number who you know is on O2)

Also, O2 provide you with pop3 email accounts if that's important to you.

My brother has his own o2 broadband connection and mobile phone and has got a discount on his broadband. My parents have o2 phones too, i hope they cal also provide me with a discount code

Is it LLU or are you using the access pakage?

I use O2 on the LLU package and pay about £7.50 per month unlimited. I was told I could get about 5mb but actually get 8mb with o2. Great upload speed of 1.3mb too. Cant complain for that price.

If its price you want then i think you can call BE and they will price match anything o2 offer.

Yes my local exchange is LLU enabled for o2 and BE.
