Orange broadband

Anyone know if any good or not?
We are thinking of changing to them as they are only £2 per month more than what we pay now and you get unlimited free phone calls with them. The £19.99 option.

    Out of the free/ultra-cheap broadband providers, yes. I'd say Orange would be the best one. They have Freeserve/Wanadoo's Infrastructure and a large established customer base. They give you the livebox, and it's fairly straight-forward to setup. Not sure about customer support as I've never had to ring them.

    They'll be better than talktalk eitherway

    But compared to adsl it can't slow down THAT much can it?

    Does slow down, my next door neighbour has it free with her mobile contract..

    she told me it says between certain times it can be used, confusing but im assuming it slows down after specified times

    I have it and i find it really good.
    Their customer support is great as they are always on hand to help out. I have been with them since it was originally freeserve then wanadoo and now orange and i have noticed no difference in service.
    I don't get mine free though as don't have a contract phone but think my mum pays £17.99 a month or something similar.

    yeah part of the reason my NDN gets those times is because she doesnt pay anything, we almost went with them lastime we were changing but weve gone with pipex instead
