woo hoo

Brighton here we come

just got a price off Customer Services -

currently on 20MB/phone but no package/TV on L - £ 51.50 per month (plus calls about another £ 3)

new offer, as above but 50MB - £ 57 - only an extra £ 5.50 per month seems like a no brainer (plus £ 80 activation fee)

good/bad price? (out of 12 month contract at moment)

Re: 50Mb areas
I find it odd that Knowsley isn't being done considering there's work going on at the site all week.

All depends. For an extra £10 you could get Unlimited landline calls and XL tv - but you aren't going to get what you do have any cheaper.

For Small Heath - Does that mean only that specific part of Birmingham? Or does Small Heath hold the equipment for Birmingham?

Edit: Never mind, I have found out I am not on the Small Heath UBR, but on the Sutton Coldfield one. Any dates for that UBR being upgraded soon?

As mentioned previously in the thread. There is no release schedule. The areas getting the 50MB are just getting enabled when they are ready for it, and usually only announced a day or two before it goes live.

Ok cool, thanks Apologies for missing that, I know it won't be a simple job. However, just seeing a Birmingham UBR being made available tomorrow is a good sign for us Brummies waitin for it.

Does 'Brighton' equate to Brighton & Hove?

Seven Kings still not showing as 50Mb on the postcode checker, is it worth me phoning them or waiting till it shows up?

Yes please phone them, the postcode checker won't be totally up to date and accurate.
