What a bargain

I have been happy with my ISP for a few years now, and a part from a few hiccups last week that annoyed me I still am happy with them, but I have been lured away by a bargain — I just can’t resist them can I?

It costs just £9.79 per month, which is already less than half of what I am paying now — but that’s not where it ends, they have a promotion on at the moment where you get your first 3 months free.

So 9 x 9.79 = £88.11. Compared to the 12 x £19.99 = 239.88 I am paying now I am sure you can see why I was tempted.

But still that’s not it, until the end of the month Quidco, a cashback site I use, are offering a whopping £70 cashback on all new sign ups making the total for a year of upto 20mb speed and unlimited download broadband just £18.11 — less than one month on my current ISP.

Crazy, huh?

Like I say I am not moving because I am unhappy with my host, so lets just hope I don’t live to regret moving for a bargain!

Argh, my ISP

I am annoyed with my ISP at the moment, they sent an email a few days ago to say that they were doing some technical stuff that was well over my head — what I took from the email though was that users would not be affected at all and they were simply letting us know.

Yeah right.

I still don’t understand the changes, but ever since my speed has been ridiculously slow — to the point at the moment where I actually can’t do much of any thing because pages take so long to load they are just leading to timed out pages.

People on the Think Broadband forums are up in arms about it, so I know it’s not just me.

Fingers crossed these are just some teething problems and normal service will soon resume.
