Moving from Virgin to OR FTTP

Decided not to get a phone line in the end (tbh it would’ve interfered with the connection as they would have to be so close together but if I did/decided to in the future I would’ve gone for AAISP VOIP over EE digital voice) but paying £35 a month for 500mbps
 
Understood, ta.

I just looked at their website and can see their VOIPphone plan(s)./

The website seemed to say I would pay an introductory £29.99 a month for 150mb which looks as though it goes up to around £38 after the initial period.

Does this make sense?
 
With EE/BT Broadband (when I was with them quite a few years back) - I’ve found that the prices do go up a lot (perhaps even more than that) at the end of the 24 month contract.

I’m planning to switch to avoid that (it’s not very disruptive at all, really)
 
Right you are. That's all very helpful. I've a feeling I'll just go straight to AAISP and take their 115mb FTTP and their VOIP plan and leave Idnet knowing I'm probably saving a shilling or two and am getting very personal service from them if needed (and I'm definitely not techy and do need help sometimes).

Thanks.

You will not be disappointed with AAISP in my opinion.
 
Thank you. After much deliberation I will be going with them. Basic FTTP with VOIP and porting my number from Idnet to them. I'm pretty confident other than to hope that Openreach can successfully pull the fibre from the pavement pit to the house ( the house opposite encountered a blockage). I'll take their router but might upgrade to the slightly higher grade Technicolour for an extra £30 (I need to see if it would offer better performance than the standard router)..

I might need to get a local computer engineer round to connect the new router to the printer, pnones, TVs etc. I've always had access to a tame bloke to help me get stuff sorted ... he's retired so I need to try a new one.

Ta.

Just made the jump from Virgin to Vodafone FTTP so hopeful that latency will be alot better once that's installed in a few weeks

Sick of the constant drop outs and buffering despite being on Gig1 at the moment

I'm sure you'll see a massive improvement - my latency has gone from 18ms on the VM connection to 6ms on EE FTTP on a speedtest and I can't believe the difference in games for me!

I'd gotten absolutely sick of VM by the end too
