What do you pay for your broadband?

I have just renegotiated our contract with bt

I have bt infinity option 2, so 76mb download, 19mb upload, and unlimited downloads , free evening /weekend calls

£19.50 per mth

also pay landline for the year upfront which saves the equivalent of 2mths line rental.

don't have a tv licence or any tv subscriptions.

instead I have a minix xbmc box
 
£56 a month nets me this with no caps

That's supposed to be 1 Gb down and 100 Mb up, so it's close enough!
 
£22.45 for unlimited fibre 40/20 and phone line rental with PN with free evening and weekend calls.

£48 a month for bt infinity 2, phone and line rental. The maximum speed we can get is 50Mb. We're not in a virgin cabled area.
 
£132 (12 months Line Rental) + £1.95 a month (ADSL Broadband, get 20Mbps+). £50 cashback as well.

EE Broadband.

I don't really need Fibre at the moment and don't like the fact I'd have to pay a fortune (18 month contract) if I had to move.

Just jumped ship from Sky now all my various O2 discounts are over. £15 a month now (plus £16 to BT for the line) goes to... er, 164 Plusnet line in advance, minus 74 TopCashBack, plus 2.50 a month. Whatever that is.

About 10 quid a month including line rental for 20MB copper (I live very close to the exchange).
 
The biggest problem with TalkTalk is the speed of resolution when something goes wrong. It took 14 days and 17 phone calls to get our connection restored. It was a broken pair 70 metres up the road, so an Openreach fault, but getting TalkTalk to get Openreach on the case was like getting blood out of a stone.

I would switch to Virgin, but to get the cable to the back of my television means going round two walls and a doorway. I have just redecorated and there is no way I'm talking all the skirting back off to do that.
 
Whats the cheapest way of getting fibre these days then? Are there any must have offers?

I see TalkTalk is pretty cheap but they get absolutely slated for service. I had them for a year when I had my own flat and to their defence the service was spot on. Minor hassle when leaving but other than that, sound.

Have they gone worse or should I stick I stick to the bigger dogs like VM, Sky or BT?

£41.99 a month inc phone line. I had to phone up and moan to get a fiver saved a month before the most recent price increase which would have been an extra £3 a month.

It's not bad, could be worse, at least it's 99.9% stable @ 152/12.

I wouldn't touch Talktalk with a barge pole any more, or their sister company Carphone Warehouse. Both are absolutely shocking in terms of customer service, I'm pretty sure my life has been reduced a few years due to having to deal with Matthew in India who has no idea how anything works, simply clicks answers on a PC and parrots out the answers, and has no supervisor / manager to speak of.

I would honestly rather not have internet ever again than have to deal with Talktalk.
