Every now and again I get asked “I want broadband, who should I use?”. This question tends to get answered in 1 way, “go for Be” I say. And Be is great. Be is a Swedish company who know that speed is a big factor on the internet and don’t charge the earth. Be is fantastic, I was on the pilot scheme a while back in my old flat (I think my old flatmates still have it). Unfortunately, no more as my current flat does not have a BT line, so we have been stuck with Virgin (we charge too much for everything) Media.

Anyway, my point. Be have just put down their prices, so if you thought it was cheap before (£24 for 24Mb download, 1.3Mb upload). Now it’s £22 (£24 for 24Mb download, 2.5Mb upload + static IP + more) for the pro account, which is sweeter, and £18 for the standard. Very good, well done Be. I support you whole heartedly.
For the people who don’t want to spend that much (I’m always surprised by the number of people who want free, reliable etc. broadband), there is a Value option, which is also pretty sweet at £14 a month.
