just spotted this, if you are a monthly contractor with orange you can get free BB with Orange through Wannadoo.
Does anyone have Wannadoo?
Is it any good?
They offer 2meg max where i am, it means a downgrade but i never noticed the upgrade from 2meg before!!
Any info greatly appreciated.

yes i am on it its fine no probs

Interesting, while were on the subject of free broadband does anyone have any experience of Talktalk, which seems on the face of it like a very good deal!

I've been told that the customer service is atrocious and you'll have to sign a 18 month contract.

Sky have just started to offer free broadband now aswell...

does NTL do it? what kind of phone would i need to get online with my laptop and mobile phone?

Virgin are merging with NTL. So you'll be able to get Mobile phone + House phone + Broadband and Digital TV all under one company for between £50-£80 a month.

sounds good to me. is it happening soon?

Not sure.

I was with Wanadoo and moved away just before they became Orange, because it was cheaper to migrate than to upgrade to 2M+.

However, while I was with them I had zero disconnection issues.

Am with F2S at the moment, which gives me 4M or so broadband, but there are a few disconnection problems that I'd rather not have, fortunately it's a short contract and I can re-evaluate my situation in a month or so.

BEWARE - check the monthly useage levels on these "free" or "cheap" broadband services.

You really want an unlimited service,,, I believe sky broadband (upto 8meg) is unlimited for £10 p/m - but sadly not in my area yet :(

I know that Orange's free broadband has a 2mb limit - and thats a month!!! - so 2 films and ur screwed!

Holding it back!!!

Sky broadband is definitely an option... anyone have it yet?

Nobody has Sky yet as it is just open for registration. First Installs will done August I believe.

Pricing looks good if you already have Sky.

Only thing is, being untried and untested, I'd want to see if there's a disconnection problem before signing up for 12 months.  ;goodvevil;

ive had free orange broadband for about a month now. ive had no problems whatsoever. i was on virgin before this seems alot better and FREE

What is the minimum you have to payOrange per month to get free broadband? Do Orange give you a free 3G/GPRS card?

I have this only I done it the other way round I was with wanadoo for over 18 months and they where grand.

But Orange are terrible since they took over the whole operation its when to the bollocks!!

you have to have a £30 per month mobile contract.

no i didnt get a free card thingy.

the modem they give you is quite cool though. its i livebox? aparently you can connect upto 2 pcs and 6 wireless connections to it.

to be honest i have no idea if this is good or not but it impressed me lol. i know nothing about all the technical shit i just know how to turn my computer and play poker lol

It's not common knowledge but a lot of ISP's can't actually restrict the amount you download even if they say they can. It's just a ruse to get people to cough up more dough.

I suggest you try out the free services and see whether or not you get restricted. ;)

these guys live off our lethargy and not chopping and changing

i am paying £17.99 a month for 2MB spped on orange and i am finally about to change as i have had enough of their call centre.

Its based in India and i although they are so polite i really feel they have no clue.  after 2 yrs of no probs twice in the last month my connection has been down.  Each time they have blamed it on my netgear router got me to phone netgear, do upgrades, change filters and after screaming at them for 2 hrs, they then say oh sorry sir, there is an outtage problem in your area!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HATE WANADOO / ORANGE - ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.


Where's that sky no??
