I am on resold Talktalk, with better customer service and better contract conditions. it's all a matter of choice and that we should be allowed to exercise that choice. A little like cars - There will always be someone prepared to drive a Lada. the Broadband equivalent I see here, are those that put cashback before service. I could be stumping up £38 pounds per month to be tied to Plusnet ADSL2+ - A reign of terror that still gives me flashbacks

Sky 76/20 is £30pm.

As long as I have been on this board, Plusnet capacity problems have been a theme. In the adsl max days it was blamed on BT round robin system of allocating gateways to users. I personally think its a stack em high shift em quick mentality at PN.

+ line rental at £16.40 = £46.40.

The nearest Pulse8 equivalent is P8Ultra Fibre/Line at £50 per month, although that has a usage limit of 500 GB.

Without phone its £19 pm for unlimited TTB SMPF Pulse 8 3:1 contention, which seems quite reasonable.

Quite reasonable for those with MPF-phobia.

3:1 contention? Where? (Both where is the contention that low, and where is such an impossible figure stated?)

Here.

Well... Seem to be doing well tonight Plusnet do...

My fibre connection has been suffering a lot of packet loss... Online gaming has been impossible so switched to my iPhone in EE and actually been OK... A lot better than Plusnet the last couple of months... & my ADSL connection has gone offline ...

No idea why either!

I can't at the moment find where they define what that means, but seeing as it is the lowest, with 2:1 and 1:1 above it, it cannot be a contention ratio with any real meaning in terms of the contention a user's connection experiences.
