Hi,
Just to point out that you can get unlimited downloads, and better
speeds from other companies for a better price. £10, if you are a Sky
subscriber, will get you unlimited downloads, and up to 16MB download
speed. From Be and O2 Broadband, your money goes a lot further with 20MB
and 24MB download speeds, again with unlimited downloads and no
ridiculous polisies. And then there's Vergin Media, for Phone, TV, and
50MB download speed via cable, its around £31 a month. Just my thoughts.

There is your way options 1 2 and 3, I am on
option 3. There used to be your way pro for
gamers with better speeds but that has gone
now. Mine is the £19.55 package with 30 gig,
that does include VAT. I find them reliable and like Plus a lot.

Trace - there might be other considerations to
why you've been experiencing a slow download
speed, has anything changed at your end?
I don't need more than 15GB download capacity
per month, so can't remember what else they
offer, but I seem to remember that there are packages for those that
need more.
You might want to raze a ticket with them and
ask why you've been experiencing such a
reduction in speed. Have you looked at their
links that report back on any current known technical issues.
If you let them know that you are thinking of
moving away because of this problem you are
experiencing, you might find them very helpful,
I know I did, they even gave me a months free
subscription, just because I was considering it!
I still say that Plus are very good, and their
customer service and response for me, has been excellent -
Andy

Hi Andy, I'm just playing around on their site
right now, between answering mail etc.
I can't find a package that offers unlimited
downloads, am I mising something or don't they do one?
I've found one that gives thirty gigs of
downloads a month which seems ok, how slow do
they make you go down to if you go over your
allowance? it just took me nearly forty five
minutes just to download mail, i know I get a
lot but it should have been five minutes at the very most.
Thanks for the response.

Trace -
Firstly, my experience with Plusnet is very
good, and I can tell you that when I changed
from my old package with them, to one of their
"broadband your way" packages, there was no loss
of connection, so I hope that is reassuring.
I would suggest you look at their "broadband
your way" packages, and see which best meets
your usage. Off-peak is between midnight and 8
am, but on the cheaper BYW packages, there are
speed restrictions at different times of the
day, but I have found these not to be especially
noticeable, but I guess it all depends on how
much downloading you do, and what times; I
understand the dearest package to offer top
speeds at all times, but you can confirm all
this for yourself by reading up on what they
offer, they are very transparent, and do tell
what speeds they offer and when, in a 24 hour period.
I've been with them for several years now, and
although have thought about changing, am glad
over all that I haven't, they are good value,
and customer service and support is very good,
from the few times I have had to make use of it.
Good luck -
Andy

Hi
I've been on the plusnet website and have looked
at their packages as it were, I can't find mine
anywhere, premier option 1, am I right in thinking this is no longer
offered.
There are two I'm interested in, one that gives
top speeds at all time but the monthly download
limit seems to be fifteen gigs, the other is the
same price and gives thirty gigs, this however
says nothing about top speeds, am I right in
thinking that this one doesn't offer top speeds at all times?
Their off peak hours now seems to be from
midnight to some time in the morning, I'm
thinking that the rest of the time is part of
the peak times and is counted in your monthly allowance?
If I were to change isp how long is it likely
I'd be without net connection? I've heard it can be weeks?
Thanks
Trace
