So found out yesterday we got 100/10 and are paying more then the 100/100 plan...

Of course I went: WTF! Fucking ISP!

To find out this morning my GF gotten an e-mail saying they were going to upgrade our internet this night to a 100/100 because they noticed we were on an older more expensive price plan Very Happy

So not a whine actually, nice of them to notice it themselves and acting up on it quickly

So cheaper and faster upload, YEAH BABEH!

I'd wish most would follow the Scandinavian speeds and prices tbh.
Few months ago I was still in Belgium paying double what I pay now for 1/4 of the down and 1/10th of the up. Pure criminal. But that's what you get when there are only 2 big players.
And it was way way worse for years before that.
So yup this is one of the perks of moving here

Its very common to get shitty upload speeds with cheap deals, but they are more like 35 euro a month here.

It is Wink Internet is one of few things that aren't that expensive in Norway. BUT its way cheaper in Sweden compared to what you get for the price Sad Iv got really awesome connection at work, but at home not so much...

In Sweden 100/100 mbit are way more common for private people.

Yup, we pay 168kr (20€) a month for 100/100 (tho atm it's 84kr for 6 months). I used to pay 55€ for 30/10 and it included limitless download/upload not that crappy FUP deal the two biggest ISP use in Belgium.

They pay 66€ a month for 120/5 with FUP... fucked up tbh.

Yup, used to pay 225kr for the 100/10 and already thought that was cheap as hell. So was amazed my gf said: Hey we are getting 100/100 cheaper Really thought they would keep us on the old plan and say: screw it.

64 EUR for a triple play package (TV, phone, internet) at 120/10; the phone in that is 10 EUR, the base TV rate is 16.50 so that's 37.50 for the internet + a bunch of extra TV channels (most of which I don't care about).

No limits whatsoever; my ISPs FUP is "as long as you don't fuck up the rest of your neighbourhood with 24/7 full speed usage, it's fine" Smile

we have kabelbw in our town, mostly in the new parts of our town, but not in my street, where all the old people live >.<.

I even went to a kabelbw shop yesterday and asked them if it's possible to somehow connect me to their network, but It would cost a lot of fucking money to do that, they would have to dig in the ground/street and pull a cable to my house. not possible Sad

I just hope that vodafone upgrades their DSL network in my street...need faster internetsssssssss!

So Much Win someone with crappy internet as me Very Happy

@vaifan: yeah, apparently living 7 km from the center of the capital city of our fucking country is like living in a fucking village in the middle of nowhere here -.-"

This is supposedly what I have, and what I can get, but on my ISP the price is too high for that



Fucking T-Com -.-"
