So I've been trying to get my family over to fttp when available at their addresses and this morning plugged my mum's address into the OR checker, still not available and the Netonmia(YouFibre) one. To my surprise it said its now available which is good news. Anyone who has used the Netonmia(YouFibre) checker knows that annoyingly you have to enter your details each time you check.
To my surprise, less than a minute after entering my details and before I'd had a chance to look at all the packages then I had a call from Netonmia(YouFibre)! I couldn't really believe it but then again as none of these companies can commit to dates I guess they have to jump on any leads they can.
They can only supply broadband and phone (highest phone package inc calls is £12 extra a month). This all sounds good except my mum really relies on Virgin TV and I'm not sure how she will adapt to a different tv provider. Virgin won't do a tv package on its own, Sky seem to be pushing their stream service which is not clear to me how well that does for channel surfing between the live tv channels. If that is an option then maybe everything will cost about £60 a month, less than then ~£100 my my pays with Virgin at the moment but it will mean change. Not sure I have the energy to go through and fight for a deal with Virgin.
