Hiya Casey here

Hope everyone is doing well. It looks like we are finally moving very
soon (thank goodness!) and obviously we need to sort our broadband out.
Going on money supermarket it looks like Vodafone seem to be one of the
cheapest and offer the (imho) unnecessarily fast speed of 73Mbps
guaranteed at 63Mbps. We really don't need that much we're used to and
happy with 20-30, but there's no such thing as too fast really is there.

I'm confused about what difference your isp really makes as it all comes
through the same cables and in my experience if you have rubbish cables
the isp change doesn't really do anything for that and I'm assuming the
inverse of that is true as well. I guess I'm just a little concerned
with it being a mobile phone company although that being said, when I
used EE in north shields it worked really well.

I guess really this comes down to a bit of a customer service
expectation, have any of you had any dealings with Vodafone and if so do
they seem like a giant red flag?

Thanks for your time

Casey
