Anyone ditched their landline?

On a related topic, anyone living in SN2 postcode and can recommend a broadband provider.

Are you moving/have you moved back to the 'don?

Should add our normal ADSL before fibre was poor, we got 2.5-3.5 mbps dl (Sky/Zen). We were connected to the Blunsdon exchange which is basically miles away. Presumably this is true of most/all of the area.

Not sure if Haydon Wick itself is SN2, but I  read some of that area was connected to a shitty local exchange that is probably 'ok' for normal ADSL, but looked unlikely to get fibre any time soon.

Guess you'll be able to check these things using the actual SN2 address.

I'm looking at moving back. It's been over 20 years since I lived in Swindon, but I doubt much has changed!

0845s are cheap as chips on 3 mobile.

Free is cheaper than three

Personally what I have is plenty fast enough, so I'd go for the best offer, check quidco too. When I joined sky gave me 6 months half price, and quidco paid over £100

Quidco is great for broadband, phone and television providers. I got £220 cashback for joining Virgin so good advice

I pay talk talk £8.50 per month. I get 38meg fibre and although I still have a landline I pay only for the calls I make which is none except for free phone numbers. Pay the line charges upfront each year which works out at £9.95 a month.
Their customer service has improved loads and they are cheap as chips.

New customers will get great deals whoever they go with really. Shop about and use quidco as batch advised

Cheers Batch, just earned 70 quid cashback for getting a broadband package with Talk Talk!
