Hello guys.

To cut a long story short, we had a telemarketer to ring us who was from Sky, as we have Sky TV with them he said we could get "UPTO 16MB" internet for only £10 a month...

So we switched from BT which was around £20 a month...

On BT my internet was connected at a constant 7.6MB.... Now on Sky I'm connected at 200k.... It's so slow it's untrue...

I think I'm going to go back with BT, this really is appalling.... :(
 
Going to give BT a call up tomorrow and switch back over to them...


This is what you get when you are after cheap things lol ! :(
 
call up sky ask whats going on
I've heard some good reports about them!
could be they had to redo your line or somthing.
 
I wish people would stop spouting about Tiscali, its simply unfounded nonsense. If I were going to point fingers at an ISP for being awful it would be namesco, slowest connection ive ever used. Plusnet are second in line.

unfounded?
Nonsense?
whatever dude, you got shares in them or somthing?
 
This is like being on 56K.... It really is terrible and appalling.....

They promised a good internet connection at all times, obviously they lied...

It takes about 2 mins just to load the OcUK forums page... I don't know what's wrong. :confused:

EDIT :: Can any one please give me a link to an accurate speed test page ?

Thanks.

errr yeaa, thats why i had to wait 8 weeks for them to clear a tag off my line???
 
Your line is probably on a 16mb adsl2 profile hence why your speeds is so poor, phone ts and get them to make a ticket for t3 so can cap your line to 8 and you should sync up fine without issues.

:) dont go jumping ship just yet give them a chance to fix it.

not at all, been a customer for a while and their service is top notch.

Would have gone with be* but Tiscali was offered to us for free so the decision was simple.
