I will have to talk to Cabo next week as we get nothing like the speeds suggested.

Hello all,
Thanks for all responses! Decided with MEO, met rep on Monday 3rd June and phone line & broadband installed Monday 10th June, took just over an hour. Portugal can be painfully slow in certain areas of business, however mightily impressed with MEO, are you listening BT?
BB speeds match up with those previously quoted.

Ciao, ciao,
Cooler King.

so you don't fancy 360 mps then or is that " png " according to earlier post !!! :lol: if he cant understand the units not much point in checking them is there? I assume youve got the higher VM one haven't you? - I'm still on 60, and achieving 38-40 regularly, so not bad really.
