Re: LLU or 21cn


[re: zyborg47] [link to this post]
 
I am happy with adsl24 too, but do need a larger download, and would love to ditch bt. I dont use a landline phone at all, as i have unlimited calls to landlines on my mobile service for less than I pay bt for line rental.

My exchange sadly doesnt have any other service in it., and no mention of c&w moving in ,anywhere on the web. And I badly need to save on my outgoings, so this package seems the way to go.

Thanks for your help

regards

No, you don't need to contact your current provider at all. When you place the order for Complete 50/50 Plus with us, we take the order and inform the current provider of the date we are switching you over. They then send you a letter to confirm when you account with them will close. Simple smile

In reply to a post by Adsl24:
Your situation is slightly different as you have access to our unlimited LLU service already. There are thousands who have no LLU but the Opal LLU service and thus they are currently on a capped BT service, so a faster ADSL2+ connection, higher usage cap, and a cost saving is beneficial for those customers smile


That is true, very true, but saying that even if I did not have the C&W network, I am pretty sure i would still stay away from TT network.

but yes as long as the network is reliable, this is TT after all and their equipment seems to fail around here a lot, then it got to be better than Bt.

the main problem is that it is fully unbundled and people need to made aware that changing back to another Isp if they need to is a pain in the neck and may even cost them money plus the lost of their phone/broadband for a few days.

That is a shame your exchange don't have Cable and wireless. i suppose i am lucky that we got C&W here, a shame the exchange was not closer to me to give me a little bit more speed, but such is life.

Maybe the TT option from ADSl24 is the best option for you, but bear in mind that you will be on a fully unbundled system.

I don't think i would do that even if I did not have the c&W option, not sure what i would have done mind you.

We've done away with a lot of the potential downfalls because we do normal line rental too, so it's quite easy for us to convert an MPF line back to the BT network for £4.99 and simultaneously activate any broadband service for the same date, so no downtime.

We've thought about this long and hard and have as many bases covered as possible. It's no longer complicated or expensive.

i am glad you thought of that and it makes a change to be honest. the larger Isps like Sky and Talk Talk don't tell people about the consequences and they don't make it easy for people to change if they need to.

So well done for that.

Sorry to hijack,

James, I am currently with Be, does your "Premium Plus" package use the same LLU equipment as them?

Thanks

The Premum Plus uses the same exchange equipment but not their network so it's a different service smile

Sorry to leap in on this... I was interested in your comment regarding the "£10 a month" package with BT...

Who told you it had finished? It's still running you just have to re contract for a Year with them...

My parents did...

Hi, had an email from BT last month telling me so, as part of my evenings and weekends package, which I paid quarterly.

When I spoke to them ( BT) yesterday, regarding moving my line rental from them, they were offering me alsorts to stay. Including paying up front for the year and staying on the package deal i`m on, even tho they are doing away with it. Told em to get stuffed. Hate BT with a passion.
