Broadband for student house

Ok, im moving into a student house in july and need to get a broadband connection sorted. There ar 6 lads who do quite a bit of downloading, so was looking for an unlimted connection, but the only one I could find is bulldog, and now there not accepting new retail orders, so i need to find an ISP which preferabley offers:

Unlimited or high caps
Monthly contract

I can go for a year contract if we must. I was looking at tiscali, but seeing bad reviews maybe not. Any help would be great.

If you want an unlimited and uncapped product why not look at one of the LLU providers,Check to see if Be* is available at your exchange.

The only thing that may go against a Max adsl or Be*s adsl2+ product e.g. is the legnth of your telephone line, which could cuase a problem if you have a long line, and certainly if you are over 5 Km from your exchange Be* would not provision you.


The reason I went with Be* they are the only LLU provider that have a three month NO STRINGS notice period, and your telephone remains with BT so you can use the cheap providers such as 18866 etc for your calls. See the link below

Most migrations occur withing 8 days ... new provides can be as fast as 4 working days.

Things can go wrong of course. This is usually down to third party suppliers, although Be* never blame them- BT screw up a small percentage of the migrations, and LLU to LLU is still a cease and re-provide. The Be Box can be late arriving in a small number of cases, thanks to our friends at parcelforce.

I am very happy with my Be* connection, and have not had any big problems with Be*

support is OK and improving,[i.e. 0800 numbers in july] and Be* have promissed investment in extra bandwidth as the network grows to keep contention invisible

It would appear Be* won't be enabled on my exchange till the end of the year. Any other suggestions?

^^ No offence an all, but the site looks a little dodgy to say the least. Why do you get taken to https://signup.keme.net/?REF=ONESI when you click http://signup.surfnetonline.co.uk ?

Not very promising when the ISP can't even do proper domain cloaking and why is all the text on the page images when it's not even fancy text, and could just as easily be normal text? would sure save on the old bandwidth bill.

I suggest you guys sack your current website development team.
