Re: Please point a FTTC first-timer in the right direction

I am with AAISP who don't filter the internet and will give 12 months notice should they ever start to. They also have a no [censored] approach and I appreciate that. They do have a usage cap and cost a bit more but they give you all the toys and are always around. When things go wrong you really know why you pay more than the rest. BUT with A&A we all pay the same. No new customer offers here. Also 12 month contract for FTTC

You get the same stats re clean.impacted as me on the BT checker so I would be keen to see what you do actually get. I also get 15mbps on ADSL

Edit

Also A&A auto authorise the extension kit so that the BT guy will put it wherever you like.

Indeed. To be fair, Zen are probably only £5-8 more expensive when everything evens out.

Over 12 months, BT aren't that bad - effectively £35.24/month if you pay the line rental in advance.

However, from a standing start, the large savings are attractive... and there's always the option to move ISP at the end of the honeymoon.

For completeness, I'm just adding that after much pondering and number crunching I'm going to head over to BT for my initial venture into the world of fibre.

I'm going to take advantage of their promotions, and then after 12 months re-evaluate whether to move to somewhere like Zen.

If I hadn't seen so many complaints about Plusnet recently I would have probably gone with them, even though the 18 month contract wasn't attractive.

The equipment requirement and contract put me off Sky, despite it being an attractive option.

Thanks again for all your advice and guidance which has got me this far!

I think Sky are better than BT, just need to get a good offer from them to move. I think BT are running their network under a good deal of management.
