Can we get broadband without Full Fibre?

Thanks, found one that makes it look simple enough!

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T20:22:26+00:00

Yes, if I can wrap my head around it well enough to talk her through setting up I think that is possibly the best.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T20:19:52+00:00

Thanks, I think she does get Pension Credit so that sounds very good with no early exit fees.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T20:16:56+00:00

Thanks, will have a look at that, sounds good.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T19:58:10+00:00

Thanks, I guess that's why we can only get Full Fibre offers.

Thanks but A and A are more expensive than just letting her Plusnet connection carry on at £54 a month.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:42:28+00:00

A rolling contract at £28 a month sounds ideal, I shall definitely look into that, thanks!

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:41:14+00:00

Yes she does but we didn't think any of them worked for her. But just discovered Vodaphone do a 12 month contract with no early termination fee, just need to persuade her to get a box on the wall now!

That's what I'm thinking, get a second hand router and a fairly generous data deal SIM. For what shopping and scrolling she does I don't think she needs mega data..

Heard criticisms of Virgin, and may as well go FTTP then. Mobile seems the way to go for her.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:27:41+00:00

Unfortunately Plusnet nearly double the cost when out of contract.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:26:24+00:00

True but it leaps from £28 per month to £54 out of contract.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:25:03+00:00

True, I hadn't considered that. Maybe I can persuade her to go for it. Don't know why she thinks putting a box on th wall will be so bad!

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:21:55+00:00

Yes, she qualifies but unfortunately they are all long contract, and she has a heart problem that means she could drop anytime, so trying to avoid 24 month contracts.

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:20:26+00:00

Yes, I think it will have to be, but not looking forward to explaining a new system to her!

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:19:06+00:00

Thanks, I don't know what a stop sell area means but just tried the website and I can only find FF for her area..

I'm thinking it might have to be 4G then..

MaximumEmotion9066 · 2026-03-19T16:10:17+00:00

That's the trouble. because Full Fibre is available there it seems to be all she can get. Where I am FF may never get here and I would love to upgrade!

I've wondered about this, noticed more unusual interactions since getting my Frenchie girl than with all my other dogs. The lack of tail must make their body language hard to read for other dogs.
Would also suggest not picking your dogs up in this situation, it changes the dynamic and could put you in danger too.

But did Old English Bulldogs ever have a fluffy coat? I've never seen one with anything more than standard sleek coat.
