Yeah, but the 80/20 product is not even shown on the website.

I don't know what website you are looking at, but try this one.

I was going to put the fighting down to late night banter but see that people are continuing things on into the daylight hours so the hammer will fall twice.

Are you forgetting that on fibre the Pulse8 prices include line rental?

The prices for Plusnet under a market 1 exchange are as follows:

Fibre Unlimited Extra £27.49 (No Offer)
Line Rental £16.99 (new Price)
Monthly: £45.48

and Pulse8's are:
76Mbps XL Line Unlimited Use £44.00

Now a static IP address on Plusnet will cost one off £5, so over the 18 month contract thats an extra 27p per month, however Pulse8 charge £2 a month.

So totals:
Plusnet: £45.75
Pulse8: £46.00

and for Market 2/3 exchanges Plusnet will be a further £7.50 cheaper.

I always thought providing service over LLU was cheaper, apparently not.

Don't forget that all the biggies are front-ending costs onto the line rental, in order to appear to have cheap broadband, free/cheap sport and free/cheap TV.

See my opening post re my line rental. For the many who don't actually need Anytime calls, PN xDSL + Pulse8 line is a darn good deal. Look at the call costs and look at the majors'. 10p connection + minute charges, as opposed to 1ppm with no setup charge.

Don't worry, he will be banned if he keeps it up.

I suspect you will be banned too, from what I can see you started this mess by being quite arrogant and misreading posts above.

Also your the only one I can see using foul language triggering the CENSORSHIP bot.

Yes I totally agree, line rental certainly does seem to cover a lot more than just the "line rental" it states , I suppose that is just the way now, unfortunately

Sounds like you have worked out a good deal though!

I take it you're aware that signing up under a new username to avoid a ban is against the rules, especially when using an offensive username?

what's there to be offended about "almighty bunghole" and I'm not sure who you think I am but I'm not a previously banned member of this forum,

I came across this when looking up Pulse8 Broadband

Sorry but I do not buy that argument, timing is too much of a coincidence.

The username in itself would have warranted a warning in the first place.

If you had a brain, you could use it and search for the information.

I can't seem to find Pulse8 listed as members of either Ofcom Approved ADR schemes.
