If it's a temporary set up (and I'm sure you've took this into consideration), have you established how long the contract for EE would be?

I only ask this as if you're moved onto a council property with the possibility of cable broad band, you might have better access with a different provider... but find yourself stuck in a 2 year contract with EE or something.

And surprised virgin messed you around... they were actually quite compliant when we moved house.
