15 million tech-fried Brits have tried giving themselves a 'digital detox'

MILLIONS of broadband punters aren't getting it fast enough – Which?

Whats the point?

Whats the point in harping on about download speeds when all internet service providers, use bandwidth traffic management to restrict speeds and access to networks. I find it increasingly more and more frustrating when my internet service provider (Virgin) caps my bandwidth speeds and then denies all knowledge of it until I speak to one of their engineers who confirms they do this.

We should also be evaluating mobile phone networks such as EE, O2 and Three, which are increasingly offering terrible service and value for money.

EE 'best' of the UK mobile network bunch, but how good is that?

EE are rubbish.

I am based in Leicestershire and i've been challenging EE lately about their discrimination against sim only customers and lack of signal in areas in north west leicestershire. They aren't interested at all, they told me to "find another more suitable network". The customer service at EE is terrible.
