Broadband Providers Comparison, DSL, satellite, dial-up - eligibility... and speed testing - Broadband and DSL packages

Description of the package

This package is very attractive and is provided at an affordable rate. In the first place, you won't have to write down how much you download every time you go online, as the usage allowance is definitely unlimited (which is far from being systematic with any other competitors), although ruled by a fair use policy. The download speed is up to 8 Mb. All put together, speed and usage limit compose a very honest connection.

Thanks to this bundle and its Broadband Phone package, you'll save money. UK week-end calls will be free, evening & day-time calls will only cost 3.25p per minute (bottom-of-the-line package). Many other Virgin Phone packages do exist, from unlimited weekend UK landline calls (£11 a month) to an amount of 800 minutes to call anywhere, on regular or cellular phone lines (40£ a month)

A little bit 'light' for heavy users

This broadband connection is a very good deal for passionate cinema or music lovers, or simply for those who like to spend hours on the Internet with a coffee pot at their fingertips, but speed remains slightly wispy for hardcore downloaders. PC Guard, contrary to the other Virgin Media packages, is not provided : don't forget to get your own firewall and antivirus software.
