Virgin Media is highly recommend by me as I am currently with them and enjoying some good customer service of them. Prices Virgin Media offers Broadband as low as 4.50 if you take out a landline with them. So basically you would be paying 14.50 landline included which is a good deal.

I am quite a good position to make a review on Blueyonder as I worked for them from the year it opened in 2001. I was in the tech support department back then. At the time we were all situated on one floor. This was the News Groups, Abuse, 1st and Second Line Support etc. Moral was absolutely great. At times when servers went down the phones went into meltdown but our only thoughts were to get the servers back working again. At the time the computers and work stations were brand new. Although it was a grade one listed building in the Albert Dock, we were all looked after well. There were even pool tables and fish tanks. It was a great ... Read the complete review

When I got my Blueyonder internet package, I decided to use the email account they gave me. I now regret it for 3 reasons: 1) It's hard to find. If you're on the main blueyonder site, it's at least 3 clicks before you get to the login page. At home it's on my favourites list, but if I'm at work checking home email, it's always a fiddly job to get there. If I type the page address in direct it often comes up 'unfound'. 2) Attachments are small. You can only attach 20mb to an email, which is ridiculous. If I ever want to attach a couple of high res pics to an email I end up logging onto my wife's hotmail account which has more availability. 3) My email ... Read the complete review

I was given to understand, as a pensioner, that the computer is all about information technology. "Information"?? What a laugh! My established means of access to the blueyonder email service has suddenly been turned upside-down, without a prior word of warning or explanation. If this procedural jungle is what so-called "information technology" is all about, then you can stuff it up your jumper! I am no longer interested and will revert to pen and ink and pillar box. They all ... Read the complete review

Blueyonder broadband... after a bit of a fiasco with the installation - three goes by their hapless technicians before things were working - the connection seems fine. However connection is done with a CD which is intended for a modem / Windows PC. If you don't use a PC directly with the cable modem (ie if you have want a wireless router connected to their modem and maybe Apple computers at home as well), they don't seem willing to support you. I told Blueyonder when I registered that I had an Apple network at home and they said 'fine' and signed me up, but now it seems the only way to get their advice is via their 0900 £1 a minute support line, not impressive at all. ...
