    BT Broadband issues

    Anyone else on BT for their broadband? My connection went down on Friday night (same for other people I know as well) and was patchy over the weekend. Since yesterday the speed has been absolutely terrible (YouTube videos for example are a struggle to load) and just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

    Youtube vids loading badly isn't always the ISP's fault, sometimes you just get saddled with a crap server.

      I haven't noticed any (But then I don't get great performance from my line anyway) significant drop in performance. Standard BT broadband.

      Are you being throttled? Tried a speed test?

        That's just one example though, pretty much any video is extremely slow to load and downloads of any kind are crawling along.

          I'll never go back to BT. Back in the dial up days the bastards cut me off (for "unattended usage"), to add salt into the wound, despite cutting us off, they kept charging us too (wasn't expressly mentioned in the phone bill, was bundled with the line rental) and refused to refund (would only put credit into the account).

          That Phorm BS was (literally) criminal too.

          LLU was the best thing to happen for the UK's infrastructure.

            That's pretty much what I expect from my line, so no obvious issues here.

              Mine struggles to hit 0.5Mb/s at the minute. Seems it's related to the outage on Friday night and according to the BT site, there are still repairs going on here so hopefully it will be back to normal soon.
