I do agree that NTL's customer service is bad, you are waiting for ages on the phone listening to endless options, but i have never had a problem with the actual broadband. would consider BT myself if it would use cable. I'm not redecorating to refit the cables!
well for me the customer service is great for broad band,ring them up...(after 5 mins of music) your put onto the department your seeking, for me its ALWAYS the same person everytime(a broad band guy named Amit).. always tend to sort it, and besides 2 years without a single problem with the acual broad band is great for me,ive only ever rang them a few times and that was to ask about there NTL netgaurd program, it has a ok anti virus, its a complete pile of crap though in the end used it for a month and thats it. anyway NTl broad band is very decent and i recomend it, how ever i dont recomemd the NTL netgaurd to any one though, but fair play to them for offering a free internet security program.
MNA, i live in Birmingham UK aswell, and i have Tiscali broadband 1MB and i have never had any problems with it...i only pay £14.99 a month for 1MB unlimited aswell...Check out tiscalis deals they're good...also i asked them about 2MB and they say they are upgrading me in the next fw months for the same price
@Nicklt The only problem I'm haning is with Tiscali is that they gave me a package which has a 2gb download cap,this is the wrong package and how come they're going to to give you 2mb for the same price?Thanks
To be honest mate i dont know why they are giving me the same price, i think its just a good deal ^^ does seem strange now that i think about it, but i'm not going to ask them why just in case Give em a ring and see what they say about what deals they have
Well that's what I'm tryng to figure out I still haven't got an e-mail for upgrading my package to unlimited.As I have said I have upgraded and I have received the wrong package.Could you give me a link to the upgrading page,just to make sure it's the same?Thanks
http://www.tiscali.co.uk/members/myaccount/upgrade/upgrade.html ^^^^Thats as fare as i can go before i need to input detail http://www.tiscali.co.uk/products/broadband/2mb-unlimited.html?code=ZZ-NL-11EE ^^^^Thats the 2MB package at the moment but its £17.99 unlimited, i have been offered £14.99 though strange
Yes that's exactly the same as mine and I guess I just have to be patient then.I've ONLY been waiting 3 weeks.
MNA havent you already posted the 'Broadband' question in another thread ? i use ntl 10mb like i posted in the last one lol used to live in coventry and had ntl there , Whoever said ntl tech support was good gimme the good phone number because ntl have shifted there customer services to new delhi and its the [bold]poorest customer[/bold] service that any damn network could have , all the answers are you have a virus , no sorry you have a virus , are you sure its not a virus..........and all this for 4our wait times charged at 50 soddin p a minute Give me BT anyday no matter who choose as your provider you will always get a cap mine is 75/100gb on average my advice is phone up a few see what they offer or browse the web lol only you know what you want and need
I think I didn't make a thread and if I did it was the wrong thread so I created one on here.I think I posted the question in the 'Azureus' thread.Anyway my other package I had was unlimited and I think you can get broadband which are unlimited download because as I said my previous package was unlimited.
NTL 1mb is unlimited according to the website. (any faster and they slap a limit on) if you can't get enough through a 1mb connection then you are not using it properly (see the azureus threads, people with a 1mb connection are getting some amazing download speeds, it's all in the settings) you really only need faster if you are downloading 20 movies at the same time.
No NTL 1mb has a 3gb on it, its only sometimes they enforce the limit , theres no such thing as unlimited (not downloads anyway) BB just read the small print
For any Aussie broadband users out there I am currently very happy with Telstras braodband package but I wold never recommend using bordernet isat I have had a lovely shiny sat on my roof for 6 months and unfortunately it was soooooooooooo unreliable in my out in the sticks area that I have not been able to get it working but I am still forcd to pay the monthly charge for the next 8 months more they SUCK!!!!!!!! I am now with telstra broadband ADSL not sat but I'm extremely impressed with their service even if I have to pay more for alot less i.e 400mb for the price of 1000mb. S all you aussies out there stick with telstra.
@celticfc1 There is unlimited downloads,because I had it on my previous package.I downloaded so much and the price was the same.
Lol most ive taken in a month is 400gb , but companies are getting wise and are starting to limit bandwidth so that people on the lower tiers can have extra or more
@celticfc1 Ok cool,I see.What do you download anyway,wort of 400gb?Movies,games,software you must download like 100 of each.lol
