How many of us are paying too much for our broadband?

(by Philip Heinzl) How many of us are paying too much for broad band internet connection?  "All of us " I hear you say, and you may be correct. We noticed our bill to show a supply contract of 6Mb broad band or ADSL.  We live almost too far from the telephone exchange in Jimena to receive broad band at all, but they manage to give us a contract of up to 1Mb. Of course we will never get the full quota and that we have to accept as reality, but having noticed the change in our billing led me to do some searching. The Movistar site allows for you to do a line test to  determin the best contract for your location. "Nice" you might think; but for who?  The test allows you to enter your telephone number and away it goes and comes back with a 6Mb contract, the minimum contract that they advertise as available.>>>

Don't worry, this is your new Telefónica bill

Unaccustomed as they are to advance warning, Telefónica has changed their billing form again. As it says, 'All Telefónica products are now called Movistar'. So, if you're Vodafone or Orange or anything else for your mobile, don't throw it away (as Prosp almost did) if you've got Telefónica broadband or land line at home, thinking it's just advertising.
