SINDASOX 255 Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 What's happening next April regarding price hikes...??? What pisses me off is you take a contract out for 12 / 18 or 24 month's and get the price, but then they are allowed to put the price up within this period, they shouldn't be allowed to do this.

They're definitely into more than they let on; our building is getting a refurb and everyone was to be sent home. 3 days before boris announced it, everyone gets sent home. Same keeps happening with our comms being 2/3 days in advance of announcements but just worded different Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SINDASOX 255 Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Been on the Now Broadband reviews on Trust Pilot and the reviews are absolutely terrible. Browsing again today and found Consumer choices, they had broadband for £17.95 a month. Anyway, filled out my contact details and within seconds my phone was ringing, had a chat with this guy and they had a fibre broadband deal for £20 a month, 18 month contract with talk talk. Had a look at the reviews on Trust Pilot on talk talk and they are all Really Bad as well. SINDASOX Quote Link to post Share on other sites
