    We've got Virgin down Fleet Lane but dealing with them is a nightmare. Still have problems with buffering and poor speeds, that's why I'm going over to brsk.

    Yeah I'm up in Queensbury but my road is one of the many unadopted roads up here so we've never had cable and the fastest advertised speed I could get was around 60mbps which in reality was usually about half that.

    Now, with BRSK, I get 500mbps.

    BRSK are superb. I've been with them about a year now and the speeds are unrivalled for my area as we haven't got cable installed on the road.

    All done Dave. Went for 1000mps for £30 a month. Very helpful sorted out the amazon vouchers as well. Painful trying cancel Virgin though, bloke trying desperately to offer me a deal despite me pleading for it to be cancelled lol.

    Sorting it today and tomorrow mate, sick to death of Virgin and this seems to fit the bill nicely.

    Sound mate what you gone for 500Mbps as we discussed, as I said so far they are giving me a very strong speed that I regularly try out with Ookla, it's about time there was another supplier out there who will give Virgin a run for their money the only problem could bre they are not live in your post code.

    I believe you're up Queensbury same as Al I what speed are you, were you a Virgin customer before, you could never get through until you told them you wanted to cancel then they come out with all the new deals they could offer, I'm on 500Mbps for £23/month for 24 months with no increase during the 24 months, great deal, Virgins best offer was 250Mbps for £36 £20/month less than I was paying that's how Virgin treat their loyal customers if I hadn't told them I was leaving, I'd been with Virgin since 2004 when they were Yorkshire Cable up Sticker Lane I believe.

    I was talking to an engineer last Friday who was putting BRSK in at a neighbours bungalow and asked how many in our Terrace had BRSK he said the one he was connecting was the second obviously ours being the first, so I asked if the rest of the street joined what effect would that have on our speeds he said it would not be noticeable ?.

    Not sure if he's still on here but there's an employee of BRSK that used to be a regular on City forums.
