Just been speaking on the phone to virgin media and they are offering internet and phone in Hull.

You can get unlimited broadband along with unlimited national calls for £21 a month (increases to £26 after 3 months)

Just thought some may be interested.

i thort we couid only get kingston coms

Same here, but after speaking to Virgin they say they will provide the broadband and phone live even in Hull.

Just got to wait 5 months for my KCON contract to run out.

I have just put hull post code in and:

Virgin Cable Broadband: Sorry, cable broadband is not
available in your area.
Virgin Cable TV: As you're not in a cable broadband area, Virgin
Cable TV is not available.

Virgin Broadband: You can get broadband down your phone
line, but cable broadband is not available in your area.
Broadband speed: Up to 20Mb!
Virgin Phone: A great selection of Virgin Phone packages are
available in your area. No need to pay for a BT line.
Get the fastest broadband we can give you ,
plus unlimited weekend calls
from just £5 a month*

Looks like we can get it in Hull now!!!!!!

i would love to get sky broadband and sky talk together as one package to with my current sky tv package is this possible in Hull???

unfortunatly not

Unfortunately not, I rang sky a couple of weeks back. I'm entitled to free broadband and free calls due to my sky package. But alas this is Hull!

did you take up the offer of free broadband and free calls

i dont think we can because were in Hull

actually kc will let other companys in but charge 6-99 a month to use there lines which makes it very expensive for other companys to compete that is only the phone lines they have let other companys in on they will not allow anyone into there internet services

FibreStream

As anyone read this about super fast fiber in Hull.
They are going to start install in Great Thornton Street area.

If enough people in an area (around 300) show an interest, then they will try and supply for the area.

Just had a look at virgin and it will cost me £24 a month for 40GB limitted broadband, and the speed woud be 1 - 1.5Mbps (that was on the max 20MBps package). The phone is the XL which gives what looks like the same as the minimum KC package (unlimitted national calls all the time).

The confusing bit is it say to take it up I would have to cancel my KC line and take up a BT line then I could get virgin, not sure if this would cost me and this may be the deal breaker.

There is then a standard £30 set up charge but you get a free wireless router.
