GlasgoJambo Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It's just me and the missus and we watch Netflix (on top of browsing). Is 10GB limit a month enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuthy2k Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I use Sky+ quite a bit and a movie stream can be 2-3GB easily. I would say no based on that and the fact you say you like netflix. If you do any gaming etc on the side then I very much doubt it would be enough mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartsfc_fan Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 10GB won't be enough. I had 20GB on my previous deal before going unlimited and I hit the limit 2 or 3 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 No chance. I don't have a telly so just watch stuff on catch up and occasional things on Netflix, maybe a couple of hours a day. I just received a statement on usage from Virgin for January to March and I had used 210GB. And I usually don't bother streaming stuff HD which would probably double that.

Me and the Mrs used 230gb last month and you're lucky if we manage to watch one show a night at the best of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysterion Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 10g allowance is nothing more than basic broadband designed to entice you in and with Sky it allows them to say "we're giving you it for free" It's not really enough and you might find your line gets throttled or an additional bill comes in for additional usage.

GlasgoJambo Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 Ha, thanks for the replies - clearly 10GB is not enough! I want to switch from current provider (EE) and BT is the best option but we can't get fibre in the street and BTs basic package is 10GB - unlimited is an extra ?9 a month - but sounds like that's worth paying.

Juan Jose Carricondo Perez Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Good luck getting BT out to install anything. I've been waiting nearly 7weeks for them to come and sort my phone line out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerd Muller Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Yep BT are horrendous , took 3 months from ordering fibre to them telling me it cant be done. 4 engineers came out to the box, house etc and basically fobbed me off until a complaint was raised and even then no one knew why. Cancelled the order and went with sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There shouldn't be any installing necessary - just sending a router and taking over the line (I fink) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppetboy Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Got sky fibre with 25gb allowance, got email last week saying I'd gone over the allowance and I'd be automatically be upgraded to unlimited if it happens again. Never thought I'd ever be close to the limit but in hindsight I should have went unlimited originally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought I'd ever be close to the limit but in hindsight I should have went unlimited originally I had their basic 2gb limit a few years ago and used to regularly use in the region of 5gb. Despite the threats, they never ever pushed the upgrade on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes round in circles as it's impossible to contact Openreach directly and BT just blame them or my builder depending on who the blamed the last time I called them!
