Hi All.
Thank you Everyone for your response's and suggestions and general information.
I have had many ISP's, such as BT, NTL, Sky and BE, whom I was with for the last 12 years on ADSL, but they have of course been taken over by Sky, who cannot seem to match the 24MbPs that I got consistently with BE. When I asked BE in the beginning how they could give me that fast speed compared to BT's 8MbPs, they said it was because they went into the exchange and hooked me onto their New Digital equipment after taking me off BT's older out-dated equipment.
So this is why I was looking around, and after realising that BT had installed a new box at the end of the road where I live and that this was Fibre Optic, and that with me being so close to it I would get the full speed of the service then of course I was over the moon.
Sky were offering the Fibre, but of course they wanted the land line too. They also were offering some other freebie to get you to join, but I can't quite remember what it was.
BT were also offering £50 Sainsburys vouchers if you took the 38MbPs service. BT also had another offer for the 79MbPs service which gave you £100 sainsburys vouchers and £40 Next vouchers too.
I don't have a large family, it's just me and the partner now, but we both enjoy surfing the web, emailing and watching films a lot, which are done either through our Netflix subscription in full Super HD (Honestly, thats what their web site calls it, but I have to admit it is good, and so is the surround sound) and we both also do some gaming on either the PS4 in the living room or the old PS3 in the bedroom, we also watch the latest blockbusters over the Sony PSN again in full HD and 5.1 sound.
I have noticed that with this slower speed service from Sky, which is un-restricted because I was on that kind of service with BE, I am noticing that we are experiencing a lot of pausing and stuttering now and then when using the likes of Netflix.
So we have both agreed that we need to get something Faster and Unrestricted so we do not have to worry about going over any bandwidth allowances.
I hope this explanation goes some way toward explaining why we have decided to try the Fibre speed broad band.
Now on to other busines.

"I simply do not understand why you have made this post?" Really, then try reading it again.
"It's brash, rude, and some what aggressive." Nope, as above, try reading it again.
"Just like my reply to you." Nope, I didn't take it as that, I merely thought the post was made by a pre-puberty adolescent, so no worries I simply ignorred it alltogether.
"But come here as a first time poster and moan because you can't get it cheaper than the rest of us, and expect us to subsidise your service, and well, you get replies like this one!" You do realise how this sounds right?
So let me get this straight, you would not go into a store and try and get them to price match something in order to try and get the best deal for You then? or wait, I bet you never buy anything in a SALE, you would much rather wait and pay Full Price?
There was nothing wrong with me asking about any offers from PN, companies run offers all the time to try and encourage new business. If you did not like the fact that I asked, then you should have refrained from posting the BS statement that you did, but there again, you might just be a Troll to begin with, either way as far as I am concerned your just a Jackass.
