by a rival ISP earlier today; they had sent a letter saying that they were putting a pole up in the street for faster broadband. Turns out that this wasn't quite the case and they're renting (or have bought) the telegraph pole over the road. Anyway, earlier this afternoon, I was doorstepped by a manager called Anthony.
I don't particularly like this approach of doing business as I like to know what I'm saying yes to. The conversation was fairly cordial and I mentioned that I was out of contract with VM and paying £71 PM for a landline/140Mbit. The offer is for 4 days only; the blurbs state 1Gbit for less than £1 a day. This is rather tempting. I enquired about a landline (we're old fashioned and they still work) and was quoted £3 per month rising to £12 pm to use it properly (incoming/outgoing calls to all numbers including mobiles). There is also an installation fee of £150, but I would get the first 3 months free*.
Should I sign up? I could be their only customer as there's lots of trees here!
*I know I've already paid (lol).
