I currently have a Vodafone monthly contract but the tie in expire last December. I looked at my data usage and I seem to use about 2-3GB out of the 15GB each month. Even allowing for lock down easing I can't see myself using all 15GB

I have a Virgin Broadband, TV and Phone package which seems to have crept up to £80 per month for nothing special about the land line and the minimum TV package we can get away with. It does headline a 163MPS broadband though which is a lot faster than the nearest competitor at 63MPS.

I use broadband for my work laptop and two home lap tops. In the evening I will use it for Netflix so I am not sure if I ever get near needing this broadband capacity.

Can anyone suggest which out of the gabillion different options I should use for a mobile phone with 5GB data, basic TV, Basic land line and Broadband that is reliable and good enough to stream Netflix without spooling.

Must say I'm with plusnet for fibre to the cabinet broadband, pay about £25 for that, I have 5 gig on mobile thats £7 along with Netflix and Disney+ it's a lot cheaper than 80.

Happy with the bb too, wife 2 kids and me all streaming no issues. Only slight issue is kids complain about WiFi signal from the router but with the money saved could get a mesh WiFi system.
