Gemmill 35322 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I went with O2 broadband recently and it's great. Class customer service - you are kept up to date by text throughout the whole process. When I was up and running I rang them and the bloke kept me on the phone for half an hour trying all sorts of things to make my speeds quicker (they were already way quicker than my previous provider). Quick speeds on torrents, and I play a canny bit of online poker and have never had the signal drop out on me. Definitely recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBass 2296 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Aye I've used that for some stuff. Can you get tv series on it? Should be able to, although it won't be as easy to locate an entire series as it would be with torrents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBass 2296 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 You pay for it?! You only pay if you need to: Download files larger than 100MB Don't want to be restricted on how much you can download and how often Want to host files yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 35322 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 One episode of any tv show is over 100mb so doesn't sound like it's for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6067 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Aye I've used that for some stuff. Can you get tv series on it? I sign up for megavideo. Use www.filmupdatelist.com or www.surfthechannel.com or www.missedashow.com to direct me to the videopage then download it off there. Id recommend 'Southland' First Episode - http://www.megavideo.com/?v=HB33RT0T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Course it is http://www.surfthechannel.com/show/66.html And Gemmil, I dont really download anymore. I just stream the videos on megavideo and watch a few in a row. You can watch 72 mins free every 2 hours or something daft. Firefox has a new app though which lets you watch unlimited vis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Course it is http://www.surfthechannel.com/show/66.html Yeah that's okay if you've got decent internet speed and time to sit and watch. Downloading is another matter. Just tried 'Ghost Whisperer SE4EP01' as a test and all the Megavideo download links direct me to Usenext which I'm not signing up for. There's zero Rapidshare links too.

Southern Geordie 1 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I'm gonna try my luck tonight ringing o2 and asking for an upgrade to an iPhone. My contract runs out in February so would only really be entitled to one in January. Worth a shot though if I say how unhappy I am with my current rubbish (sony ericsson c902).

Jimbo 133 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Just been to my local Apple Store, had my iPhone exchanged with a brand new one, my old one had a tiny crack near the mute switch, I'd booked an appointment at the Genuis bar and they swapped it no quibble, fantastic service, can't imagine Nokia or SE doing the same.
