• Facepunch's Thoughts on O2 Broadband?
    7 replies, posted
So after being with TalkTalk for 7 years, I am well untruly fed up of their poor service, low speed, and (recently) upselling. I am considering O2 broadband as an option since I am already on O2 as a phone network. Do any of you have any experience with O2 Broadband?
It's pretty much the same thing as Be, which is the best

Whatever you choose, if you decide against O2, don't go with BT or Sky!
it's a great deal when you've already got an o2 phone - go for it! i used be while i was at university, and pretty much the only difference is the customer service - which i believe to be a bit better with be

Though that's just sales, their support is good
Although o2 are cheaper price-wise than BE* (even though they're both the same product), [b]DO NOT[/b] pick them - always go with BE* from now on. o2 [url=http://broadband.o2.co.uk/home/trafficmanagement.jsp]recently introduced traffic management[/url] on all new packages ("The ****"), and it's pretty horrendous: [img]http://s.duck.me.uk/Screenshot-2011-09-24_16.55.13.png[/img] Bear in mind that for the little extra you pay on BE, you get no traffic management / throttling [b]at all[/b].
