Currently a rather poor (by today's standards)

But we've just got fibre installed in the area so hopefully by next week I'll be on something much better. And I can't wait. I've had my current connection for many, many years now and I remember how much of a revelation it was going from 56k internet, so being able to download a large file/demo/whatever in a few minutes will be AMAZE!!!! Can't wait.

Need to sort out internet for the new house in a week. Need no more than a 12 month contract. Want as fast a connection as possible. Suggestions? Plusnet seem to only do 18 month contracts for their fibre connections.

Don't Virgin do 9 month student contracts? You can get it without a phone line I think too - no shitty line rental charge.

Virgin are hugely oversubscribed in the area and as such are terrible. Any other options?

Sky do Fibre on 12 month contracts don't they?
I think you have to take a phone line/line rental with them as well though. The broadband itself is half price for 6 months though.

Supposed to be getting 120mb down! :x

Don't really give a gooseberry fool. Would rather get a solid 50mb down from Virgin constantly and not have to bother with their customer service.

Your upload if still only 5mb means that they havent upgraded the area yet
