Hi all new to the forum, and also just orderd idnet home max 30gb on adsl 8mb. Looking forward to getting idnet up and running, been stuck on sky broadband connect for last 12mths, they are rubbish after 5pm but was brilliant upto then, got the full 8mb on my line.
Lets hope my speed is just as good in the evenings which is when its used mainly.
Cheers.

I know how you feel re Sky Connect, a total disaster after 5pm :no: You will not have the same feeling with IDNet ;D You have made a good decision :thumb:
@ quandam, lets hope so!! or it will a total disaster lol, was getting sky connect for £5 per month.
But i can be free, still not helpful if you cant use the net when you need to.
That seems to be their trick. Even if it is "free" internet, you are in a 12 month contract, usually with SKY TV tagged on for £30 odd a month. So not quite free. Like when you get a "free" mobile phone on a £75 a month contract. :/ I'd prefer paying £75 on the phone, and getting free calls.
I'd much prefer to be able to use my full 30gb with IDNet, then get no downloads at all on O2. So I hope you feel the tame about it. It's just a pity you can easily reach your download limit when your connection works flawlessly and super fast! ;D

I was paying £17.00 per month for Connect plus the full (max) package for TV (not complaining about that, my choice). So glad to get away from Connect and get the fun put back into using the PC particularly after 5pm >:(
@ quandam, was ur connect package rubbish in the evenings aswell? Only reason i got it for £5 a month was moaning like little girl, but it still not worth having as it's unusable when u need it!!!!!
Yes, it was worse than rubbish :eek4: However, I was one month into a 12 month contract and cancelled being prepared to pay for the 11 months that were outstanding and :whistle: :whistle: they cancelled and :whistle: didn't charge me :whistle: :thumb: :thumb: A superb result :whistle: :whistle: That's between you and I of course! ;) ;)
of course will keep stum. Still on sky at the moment placed my order on 9/1/2010 for idnet so not long now.
