Internet Service Provider and IPTV

Hello,

So with BT now announcing another price hike in the services they provide I'm going to be looking at moving my internet supplier again which gets me out of this long term contract with them.

So the real question is are there any ISP's that I should be staying away from when it comes to IPTV or will (as has been the case throughout my contract with BT) I be able to move to any provider and keep the same level of service I have been having with BT.

I hope that makes sense, with the offer Sky have on at the moment it's a possibility of moving to them.
 
I use plusnet,even thou they are part of bt,i find there internet so much better, whether that's down to bt hub 6 being crap I don't know.
I used to get daily problems on bt, but no problems with plusnet
 
I use Plusnet and once binning the router they supplied, replacing with an unlocked huaweii modem and ac router have had no issues. I have just renewed for another year following a 2 year contract. Have used BT and Sky in the past and all I will say is never again

Tbh their quite good with faults and other things and my iptv runs quite well with them but their all an off cut to bt phone lines which near enough all providers are now days and had free calls to every number including mobiles don't know what data they give like vf do
 
Been with Sly BB and then Moved to Sly Up to 76Mb, Fibre MAX - Getting around 60+ Meg.
Never had an issue with them, and I always get UK call centre, usually near my home town if i ever call, and that is usually to renew my contract and get better deal when I do. 30 quid a Month for this Package on 12 month Contract..
Works great with IPTV etc, no VPN
 
please dont laugh too loudly

your a vodafone customer. the outage mid October. it happened in an exchange near to me..
but vodafone have said. They will not hold me to contract..
in fairness my speeds were excellent. average usage monthly 320gb
i would be lucky to scratch 20gb with that speed its embarrassing

vodafone have rebated myself and will not charge my account .

Vodafone slapped 50gb on to my fone then i have been using my phone to run a mag 254. so not out of pocket.. its frustration inconvenience..
i go away offshore tuesday so i have to leave my phone so mrs can watch tv.. i can see me trying Plusnet.

changing provider wont change your exchange
every provider I spoke to said 25 was the max I could get, but being practical I'd be lucky to get 20,
eventually TT business guaranteed me 15 minimum, but you really dont want to know how much I pay :grimacing:

Like your way of thinking mate as far as I'm aware this is what an engineer told me there's 2 separate parts in exchange a fibre part and standard bb part it could be the same exchange it's a bit of a tough situation for you with the fault been the exchange you could always ask if it's the same exchange but doubt they would be able to exactly say
