MAZ Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I've been with Virgin for years now and to be honest I want to try something different. I've never wanted Sky although I did go through the process of getting it installed last year - only to be offered a better deal by Virgin at the last minute What else is there?? I'm tempted to keep the broadband because its not too bad (although the Virgin homehub is crap) The homephone - is there a better provider than Virgin for a homephone? TV channels -the kids like watching cartoons (spongebob/regular show/Adventure time) Me and my partner tend to watch stuff as and when so not really bothered Whats NowTV? Is freesat any good? Or should I just stick with virgin? Not particularly happy about paying 70 quid a month though :/ Your thoughts my good people are much appreciated as always :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeghead28 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) No point going to Freesat if you can get Freeview already. I have Now TV but only have it for the movies. I bought the box with 6 months movies for Edited September 11, 2014 by smeghead28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 In a similar position myself.... I refuse to have my name associated with Sky/Murdoch, however our lass feels differently... As long as I get Fox HD I am happy... Watching thread with interest,.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAZ Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 I've got Netflix which is okay I wouldn't mind getting the usa Netflix but read that the dns codes you use can be set up to steal data or whatnot from you. You can use a company that screens the dns' s but again thats more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonysmini Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Bt vision is good, as long as you are in an area that has better than 3meg download. They do two fibre speed packages depending how close you are to the street cabinet too. Plus you get BT sport for footy and motor racing, Check here.http://www.superfast-openreach.co.uk/where-and-when/ This will tell you if your cabinet is fibre enabled, and of not when it should be done.

prussian.guard Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Will all depend on certain things.I was with BT and they were a load of tripe.I'm now with talk talk and haven't had a single problem,I also like the fact you pay monthly for what you use rather than a quarterly bill everytime.

Thunderwolf Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 i use the internet and netflix myself. keep hearing good things about now TV but its basically a toned down version of sky that is run via the internet rather than a satellite dish, at least that is what it sounds like to me.

sidewaysjim Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 BT vision here with entertainment pack and HD sport. Can't fault it. Homehub 5 is awesome and TV has massive storage on recordable box. Plus you get to say naff off to virgin and sky when you get collared by a salesman.
