Unlimited short term ISP


[link to this post]
 
My girlfriend is on a BT only exchange but there is the possibility of FTTH as part of a community run project in the spring, in the meantime is there an 'Unlimited' BTW provider that will do a 3 month rolling contract?

Don't think you will get "unlimited" on a one or three month contract from an ISP using BTw, how much usage is actually needed per month, there's an ISP who provides 100 GB + Free + unmetered usage 11pm - 9am and that is Eclipse but it ain't cheap.

A friend in the village (20CN exchange) uses another package from Eclipse and I've not heard any complaints from him, the GB usage isn't heavy.

Lets forget about the short term aspect of my request...

BT Total + Line Rental comes to £39.40 a month, is there any unlimited providers that can trump that?

If it's of any interest the Post Office provide an unlimited BB package with a FUP, here's a link to their website.
I'll leave you to read and compare the details tongue

Which if your line is over around 44dB attenuation makes no difference

Yes indeed, I noticed that on the PO's website but as mentioned earlier in the thread the OP's GF's exchange is 20CN with no LLU providers.

Good question perhaps you should ask about PO BB on this ttb forum in order to get a reply from folk who actually use it.

Yeah I know, I've decided I'm not going to really get that for a reasonable price.

Now ordered Post Office broadband, thanks for your help.
