At last the UK is getting into the 20th century. Still showing last weeks news though.
Carphone Warehouse are due to announce on Tuesday that they are going to be running a cheap broadband service.
I got a phone call from one of their salesmen last week as I used to be with them until recently. Apparently they are linking with Pipex to give a real bargain. But just what might constitute a bargain depends on the clauses in the contract. Look out for them here:
Carphone Warehouse is expected to unveil a new low-cost UK broadband service tomorrow, offering existing customers of its Talk Talk fixed-line service free high-speed internet access.
And the predicted move is expected to herald a large-scale price war among broadband providers, with industry analysts predicting subscription rates will fall sharply from their present level of between =A315-=A320 a month as a result.
Anyway, if you have the patience to deal with the BBC try this for more details:
Things to look for:
How much speed and for how long. Means: What do you want it for? Positive service. Do you know how to handle problems without too much help? Telephone numbers. Can you take that and the e-mail address with you? Contract. Will you be tied in? Will they charge you to leave?
