It's NOT FAIR!! I want broadband.. but living in the middle of nowhere surrounded by sheep (baa!) its not likely that broadband will be an option for me for a while.
This hasnt stopped me longingly researching the subject only to find that each time i put in my postcode it comes up with...."Fat chance, matey, it wont work you're too far from the exchange..but hey why not order it anyway!" (or words to that effect) :sob: :snivel: :scream:
I had heard a whisper however that plus.com were supposed to be doing a good deal on superfast broadband these days. Another mate of mine uses Pipex and sings their praises.
Ntl I have heard mixed reports about, same with Tiscali. Also watch out for one-year-tie ins. Some broadband providers promise you the earth, moon and stars as long as you sign up for a year. (which is fine if they dont turn out to be broadband providers from H*ll!)
I would say get the fastest speed you can (*she says, longingly wishing she could get broadband!*) Tho i guess it depends what you do on the net as to what you want from broadband.........if you do lots of uploading and downloading your gonna have very different needs from broadband than say me who just checks emails once a fortnight and then switches it off......;-)
Whatever you choose good luck!... i will be sick with jealousy when you get it installed
