And what a stupid way of working it is.When we had BT broadband & a landline we had to cancel at the end of each contract & then take out a new contract using the other half’s name - ie when mine expired we too’ out a contract in Mrs DB’s name, then when that expired it went back t9 a new contract in my name. All paid from the same bank account for the same address

Streaming non-live TV shows from ITV X, CH4 etc doesn't require a TV licence, BBC iPlayer does since they changed the loophole.
I have a small PC in the living room plugged into the TV, watching non-live ITV or CH4 shows is great through a browser as AdBlock skips all the adverts.
We do have Starlink. And in our rural areas not yet served by cable/fiber it is king.
But where fttp exists, that solution comes in at a better pricepoint and higher throughput:
Starlink 100Mbps = £35 p.c.m. Plusnet promises 9x the Starlink download speed for 14% less at £30 p.c.m.
This might work and did work in the past for me. Tell them you wish to cancel if they won’t match a current new member price. Explaining that you will reinstall as a new customer. They will tell you you probably can’t do this as you won’t be a new customer so I said my wife put it in her name as a new customer and they did match it. Boggles me how they can’t offer an old customer the same deals as a new one. Certainly worth a try
My neighbour's horses run in circles whenever I'm zeroing my .270
I can watch them.
Ha ha, you are helping fitten them! I have convinced my wife that ours are fine with it, they mostly are but did spend about 2 hours one afternoon getting one out from behind permanent electric fencing it must have dived under when "taking cover", then getting its friends out who joined it when I had cut the wire, then repairing the wire.....
To be honest, they are fine with it.
I was only joking, in response to your post, when I said that they run around in circles.
In reality, they just lift their heads at the sound of the first shot, and carry on grazing for subsequent shots.
Please advise which model. EE supplied or did you source independently?
I have just come to the end of my tether with my SKY provided fttc broadband from subsidiary Now.
For 4+ years it delivered 67Mbs down, 17Mbs up.
Then last year I saw website updates stating that if the Now-branded router were to fail, it would not be replaced. In that event, and sooner if I apply for it, I would be sent a SKY router. There was no need, so I did nothing. What followed was a steady erosion of the data throughput capacity on my router. It fell to 25Mbs down and just 700Kbps up! [I had a spare router and proved it was not a hardware issue]
I am sure that I was being herded toward taking a service I neither needed nor wanted. 03300412475 - 4 - 4 to cancel!!
