Help me decide an ISP
Hey all, currently with EE paying about £45pm for 500mb with open reach. Happy with the service itself but it’s getting to pricey now and will go up - by the time my contract ends will be paying nearly £55pm!
Currently £~300 to terminate my contract early with EE (I know, I know - was moving house at the time and didn’t have time to properly research the different offers)
Looking to switch to another provider, would like:
- 500mb-1gb speed
- City Fibre
- Use my own router
- I WFH full time so must be reliable, but 1gig speed is deffo overkill, 500mb would be more than enough.
Actually took out a contract with Fourth Utility yesterday and then cancelled after reading the horror stories.
Sky are offering £25pm for 1gb up and down, and offered £200 towards cancelling with EE. Vodafone is a similar offer.
I spoke to Aquiss earlier today (amazing customer service btw, what a great guy that Martin fella is!) but they couldn’t offer any credit towards my current contract, similar for Zen - so wouldn’t actually save me any money switching to either of them (yet) compared to sticking with EE. If I could cancel for free I’d immediately switch to one of them, but I just don’t have an extra £300 lying around to cancel.
Wonder whether it’s worth switching to Sky or Vodafone (and then eventually move to Aquiss after that contract ends)?
Sky and voda reviews seem pretty mixed, but doesn’t seem as bad as Rise/4th. Perhaps it would be fine, would save me £~400 over the next 15 months but I’m worried about reliability.
I’m based in the north east if that makes any difference.
Thanks in advance!
