I could get it cheaper, but not the speed and, if I changed provider I have to change a lot of my email addresses. Basically, I'm happy with what I have and don't want to step out of my comfort zone for the sake of a few pounds and, maybe, a lot of hassle.
Difference between BT landline/broadband and ecotalk is £400 a year, some others are a bit cheaper. Supposed to be full fibre to property with BT but didn't notice any difference really when it went from copper to fibre for what I do. I have several email addresses. One I use when buying stuff. That fills up with spam and one I use myself. Getting a new email address can be useful, you can give it to people you want to keep in touch with and leave the rest behind.
I've bought a mobile for £100 that is just in the living room. When the sim arrived in the post, it took about 10minutes to set up: put the sim in, press a button and set a few things (password and email address mainly), then set up a hotspot and that was it. Not a lot of hassle at all. I was surprised at how easy it was.
I'll keep my small pay as you go to take with me if we ever go out again. I've put £20 on it in the last 12 months or so (and got £23 credit still).
The main thing I need to check is that it will handle Zoom calls. I have one coming up next week so will see then if not before.
