I hear Amazon will be showing Premier League football from 2019. What’s it all about?
I see that broadband packages now advertise 'average speeds'. What does this mean - is my internet slower than it used to be?
How do I watch the Champions League final at home? Do I need to sign up to Sky Sports or BT Sport?
The last time I bought broadband, I got a package with free broadband - I just had to pay line rental. Do any providers still do this? Is there any way to get the internet for free? Thanks in advance.
I read that Virgin Media has a new TiVo box out. Is it worth getting, and if so how do I go about doing that? Thanks for your help!

I’m moving house and my landline provider said I can’t keep my current phone number. I am fuming. I’ve moved before and been able to take my phone number with me. Is there any way at all I can keep it?
I just moved to a flat right in the centre of my city, and just found out that I can’t get fibre optic broadband. What’s up with that? The rest of the city has fibre!

How can I stop my kids from seeing inappropriate websites? Can I block the websites on their computers, but keep them unblocked on mine?
My broadband provider lets me pay for a whole year’s worth of line rental upfront, right now. Should I go for it? Is this a good deal?
I want to watch the football, but I'm on a bit of a budget - what's the cheapest way to get Sky Sports? Which provider sells it at the lowest price?
I’m already with Sky and watch a lot of football on Sky Sports. My friend says I should add on BT Sport next season starts because they have some of the biggest games, but how do I actually do that? Any help would be appreciated.
I often watch football at the pub - but would it actually be cheaper to watch it at home? I thought BT Sport and Sky Sports were expensive, but I've noticed it's also quite expensive to buy pints in the pub… what do you think?
What's VOXI? Should I get a plan with them? It says you have to be a certain age to sign up - is that true?
TalkTalk just called me and said that TalkTalk mobile is shutting down. Then they offered me a deal on O2 instead. Is this legit? Should I say yes to the O2 deal?

My wireless broadband is really slow. I've reset my router and tried a few other things, but none of them have worked. How can I make my Wi-Fi faster? Thanks for your help!

I need a SIM plan with unlimited internet, so I can use my iPad on long journeys. I know Three do unlimited phone plans, so can I get one and use it in my tablet? If not, where can I get an unlimited data-only SIM plan?
Want something that’s as easy to use as a smartphone, but has a screen the size of a laptop? Sounds like you need a tablet.
Hi broadbandchoices! The new broadband prices make more sense, and I’m glad line rental isn’t hidden any more. But are there any other hidden costs with broadband that I should look out for?

If I get Sky, can I watch it on the PlayStation? I reckon that might be a cheap way to watch TV in more than one room - but how does it actually work?
What about Vodafone - they’re offering fibre optic broadband without line rental, no?
Which broadband provider has the best upload speeds? I'm trying to choose a package and most providers only seem to mention download speeds!

I’m going to Glastonbury, but I don’t want to take my iPhone 7 - I’d be worried about it getting broken or nicked. What’s the best ‘festival phone’ to take instead?
BT has told me my broadband is painfully slow because I live a long way from the exchange. I can’t seem to find out where my telephone exchange is to see if that’s true. If the max speed I can get is around 0.5Mb, should I just go for a free package like Sky offers? It seems silly for me to pay for internet speeds that I can’t actually get.
I read that some providers have 'LLU broadband'. What does that mean? Is it better or worse than ADSL?
My teenage son downloads music, movies and games using a 'torrent' program. Could he be breaking the law? I've read horror stories about parents being forced to pay huge fines for their children's copyright infringement online...
I will be moving from St Ives in Cambridgeshire to Chepstow. I am currently six months into a phone and broadband contract with Virgin Media.

Will I have to pay a cancellation fee even though they can’t provide the service I signed up to?
I have a five-hour train journey this week, and I’d like to keep occupied by doing some work - but can I use the internet on the train?
If you have 4G, you're probably pretty impressed with the internet you get on your mobile. 4G's faster and more widely available than ever, and sometimes, in some cases, you can get a faster connection through your smartphone than through home internet. So it would make sense to forsake your home broadband altogether and just use 4G, right?
I’m currently with BT broadband and was given a BT email address when I signed up. However, I am now planning to switch internet provider. Would switching mean I lose my original BT email address? Or can I keep it? Any advice would be appreciated...
