If it was just me here I might of gone with Infinity 2 or maybe Infinity 3.

Paul

I got infinity 4 for 47 a month including line rental, so not bad, I was paying 20 a month + 17 line rental for 5meg ADSL

LOL

Some real prices do alter the assessment .

At that price I'm not going to argue much with your choice. I happily pay £49pm for (actual) 75/13 or so with a 200GB pm allowance which I hardly dent. To the extent that with the auto-carryover it has 345GB unused on Day 2 of my billing month.

Yeah, and infinity 4 is unlimited

I actually pay £20 a month too for a vodafone data sim with 50gb, so thats another saving really

Know how you feel! I am in a similar situation; currently have 5-6 Mbit ADSL but should have FTTP available soon. The current connection is really struggling now with 3 people gaming/streaming at the same time.

I will probably go for a 80/20 connection with PlusNet, who I am in the process of switching to. Think that will be a big enough improvement, for now at least and the price isn't much more than I am currently paying.

We were paying £5 a month (not including line rental) for our 3-5Mbit ADSL2+ connection.

For our Infinity 4 we are paying about the same, would of been about £50 (without line rental) per month due to being out of contract.

So back in November / December last year I phoned up BT done a little haggling to the nice BT lady on the phone and we got around the same price if not a little lower (not by much though) so re-subbed for another 12 to 18 months.

So very happy I phoned them

Paul

looks like sales lady messed up my order and put my on infinity 3 ( 200mb ) and i rang them today and they said I can just upgrade when its in to infinity 4.. saves cancelling it

he said it takes 24 hours to upgrade, is it really that fast?

It could be faster it is only keyboard work to change a setting. Sales person enters the order it processes through the different systems from Retail to Wholesale to Openreach where it is actioned by the systems without any other person touching it.

For some changes they are done overnight but no reason for yours to be as it involves no downtime.

Completion is then reported back and changes your package on the front end.

Should be single touch. If you placed the order on a web front end it is possible to do it with NO touch within the supplier. ( I believe if you were with BT they can do this).

I'm supposed to have engineer visit on 5th, logged onto my bt site to check status and this pops up

" We have not received commitment for the order yet, so it may become delayed "

great, can't wait to see what this is all about

rang BT today and they said openreach have cancelled it from their end ( for 2nd time ) so they are going to ring back and find out why it keep getting cancelled

Just make notes of all these cancelations / issues and mess ups etc, you can complain and get compo, just don't be greedy, BT can be reasonable with their compo.
