that's extortionate, I moan about Sky but I pay that and get a load more channels
I only pay about ÂĢ40
Yeah, but it's the speed of the internet that determines who I go with, although I don't need the speed I'm getting with VIrgin, I'm not sure what Sky are offering me would be any good either.....it's a minefield!

That's why I've mentioned to you many times that I want out. I just can't figure out things at times
Why don't you just ring Sky and ask them what sort of a deal they will do you 
Rocking Ros posted:I don't but we have multi - room HD BT sports etc etc- the new Q thing would be more expensive for us
I dropped the multi room because I never switch the living room tv on through the day...you might find Sky Q cheaper Ros because it covers other rooms

nor me - just see the end before the voice comes on - it really lowers them to me - they should be above that carp - seems a bit like the old Noel Edmunds format to me
Nicola Sturgeon is mad - Scotland would be right in the dod doo

I have done previously......I reckon internet would be too slow, although they reckon it would be fine.....they would....they're there to try and sell it aren't they

But why do you need super speeds ? Do you watch lots of films or play complicated games ???

See, now it would be helpful if you could know what speed you do get so I can gauge mine 
Saying as you're saying you can can watch I-Player

I only have 18 Baz and run firestick, sky, phone and two x-boxes off it and no buffering whatsoever quite ample for me

same here - have BT infinity but our system where we live seems incapable of achieving it's full potential but it does everything I want and it is limitless

I don't need super speeds. I'm just not sure what I am being offered will suffice

Yes , think mine is probably that , or lower .....
Baz posted:Im with talk talk ....but only on a basic package ...not anything fancy .....only quite low ....but have absolutely no problems watching IPlayer ....

think it's the same Baz...mine is supposed to average 16 but comes out higher and they adjust it when it overloads the line when it tops 20/21

I don't download much either especially since my job 'changed'
Baz posted:The way I look at it is stuff the speeds , just so long as it's reliable
Yeah but even if it's reliable you still want it to be a decent speed too?
