Been with Homecall now for about 5 months, and I have come to the assumption they are utter shit. Really slow. 10 - 20 seconds to load my ebay page. Sometimes doesn't even connect, particularly in the mornings. Plus I am on the "free phonecalls everywhere" package, and my monthly bill is between £50 and £60 for everything, which I think is fucking steep. Any suggestions on who I should go to??? Cheers |

I have a broadband issue, may as well put it in here. I've got this computer on AOL broadband, I have a computer next to it on Windows XP.. whats the cheapest way to connect them and maybe have the internet connection on that one as well. Should I buy one Ethernet adaptor and install it on the PC without the internet connection, and then have a wire going to the internet enabled PC, maybe to a USB port.... or whill I need to buy 2 ethernet adaptors for each PC... ???? PC World have them for £4 each.. |

Many thanks. I will switch over soon. To give an indication of how shite Homecall are. It took 10 seconds to load the page to type this message. Now that is not worth £24.99 a month. No chance. |
