Sorry this may be slightly misleading and off topic but it is interesting to
me as we were with Telewest before Virgin Media took over and seem to have
experienced little niggling problems yet they told us they are using all the
same equipment that was there before. Strange isn't it? We're paying for the
fastest internet connection and have also been wondering whether to change to
another internet provider but not sure if we want the hassle.
I did read on Virgin Media's site that they reduce speeds in busy periods
obviously worded differently than that - is this standard practice?
Mary I do know someone who works for Sky so if you want to email me privately
with your post code I'll try to find out for you whether you can get Sky
Broadband.
Mandy.

Hi,
At the moment we use Virgin Media for our phone calls and broadband and Sky
for our satelite viewing. We have been having quite a few provlems
especially during the slot between nine and twelve A.M. Very often I am
unable to get Internet Explorer connections and then suddenly once the busy
period is over, fine. I have noticed this more since Virgin Media took over
NTL. We have just phoned Sky to find out about their broadband pricess but
were told by Sky that we had to have a BT connection before they could tell
us whether we would be able to receive Sky broadband in our area. This
seems quite stupid to me. We could ditch Virgin Media phone and broadband
and then be told Sky broadband is not availlable in our area. Is there a
post code check we can do for Sky broadband before we decide to switch?
Regards
Mary
