21 minutes (spread over a 15 minute call where they offered a crap deal and I told them I was leaving and a call the next day where they called me to offer a decent package).

Got it down from £125 a month to £100 a month on the first call and then £65 a month the next day. Same price as my previous contract (with no price rise).

They flaked the other day and now are messing my Flanders viewing. 35M down on a 100MB service. I'm going outside and cutting cables on all the other flats unless I hear Flanders on.

Does anyone have experience with G. Network? They've just been digging up the road, so I'm hoping I'm going to have a fibre option that isn't Virgin in the near future. Hyperoptic have been saying they've got council permission and are coming soon for about 3 or 4 years (it feels like it) so I've given up waiting for them.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
