SSE BROADBAND

[faceman123]

Hey guys, asking for a mate who can't get virgin, is this any good? How does it compare for Gaming and YouTube etc vs bt

 

[mejinks]

If its anything like the company, the bill will vary wildly from one month to the next and complaints will be laughed at.

I'm tempted also as they are so cheap but from what I've read the speed slow at peak times.

Ah yes, thats the one.

Such a shame Sky Pro is so expensive, thats what I want really but at the price of SSE lol

Avoid. About 3mbs on top fttc in the evening. Have a look over at hotukdeals thread.

Um there not great, recently moved to them myself, I get top whack till 6 in the evening, then drops off to less than half a meg, after lots of complaining my ftp and http traffic + youtube etc is now full whack +6 , but steam, origin and battlenet are still super throttled, but working to resolve that issue now, as to customer service, having dealt with them a lot in the last 3 weeks to solve the http issue, they aren't that bad at all, and certainly haven't laughed

Shock horror things that are as cheap as dirt aren't very high quality.

You can usually get pretty good new customer deals with BT and cashback on top via TCB or Quidco, so it really doesn't seem worth going with a cheapo ISP.

Avoid like the plague.

Tried to move to then at the start of June - took over the broadband but not the phone. Fast forward to yesterday and they take over the phone but manage to cut off the broadband!

After three hours on the phone last night they admitted they had no idea what the issue was and agreed to let me walk away from the contract.
