Can someone help me (in words if one syllable)

exactly, as Marydoll says.
and she knows her onions.
please be v careful, BB.
least said, soonest mended:
no, that doesn't work for me.
a useful phrase i found on MN.

I would say No. It's a security risk and you don't know what they or visitors will be watching. You have no way of knowing.
I wouldn't dream of it, not because I am mean, but because I am very aware of the implications.
That is why we have individual passwords.

They shouldn't really have put you in that position in the first place.

I would say no, do not give your passwords to anyone, not even your Wi-Fi, you don’t know what they might be logging into.

i;d say no.
you cannot control what sites they or their visitors might access.
if there was criminality involved it would be linked to your address.
sound like cheeky pluckers to me.
what else will they ask for.
they knew they were moving in, it was their responsibility to arrange all services were in place in good time.
or maybe they thought they would play on the acquaintance with you and not bother too much.

NOT be comfortable doing.

Not wanting to risk any fall out with your immediate neighbour, I would kindly suggest to them, there is no need for them to connect to your wifi, all they have to do is use their Personal Hotspot. It’s something they will/should be familiar with.

It isn’t something I would be comfortable doing BlueBell, especially as I am not too sure of the ins and outs in this situation.

Please don’t do this.
It’s a security risk, if anyone was using the internet for nefarious purposes it’s via your router.
Politely say no.
They should have organised Wi-Fi, they will have phones and can hot spot.

I’m also not much good technically, but have to say I wouldn’t feel happy about doing it.

Mostly because it’s just that, no idea if I would be letting myself in for extra costs, security issues, making my own wi fi use more difficult…..especially around Christmas.

I hope someone who knows comes on and advises you correctly.

I agree with previous posts around security. You don’t have a guarantee that other people aren’t going to come to their house and access the internet either.

At your home, sorry

Your WiFi password is on your rooter.

Usually WiFi is unlimited as long as you have a router so it won't cost you anything extra

But anything they do online will be attached to your IP address at your hine

So if you are uncomfortable, please just say so, if they are decent people they will accept a no

Thanks I was kinda of thinking those things but just not sure what I might be missing out I ll ring my provider tomorrow and take their advice
I ve never been a bad neighbour Doodlebug even when I had the family of hell next door to me I still kept on good terms with them

I don't understand the technical stuff either but is there not a security risk in letting someone have your password. We did actually do this for our neighbour when his house burned down but I wasn't comfortable with it. We didn't have any problems.

'Wifi-only' just means that you don't have your mobile data (if you have it) on the same contract.

It is unlikely that your neighbours will make a difference, so long as they just want to watch TV and make festive phone calls; but if you aren't sure, check your bill and see how much you have on your contract, and how much you usually use. If there is a lot of leeway between one and the other (which is definitely the case for us) I don't think you have anything to lose, and if ever you are in the same boat they are likely to return the favour. I wouldn't hesitate, personally - it's good to be on good terms with neighbours.

I would contact my wi fi provider and ask if there would be any problem with this.

I’d also suggest to them they use their phones as ‘hot spots’. It’s easy to do - they’d be better to buy a Bolt On amount of data so they have control of their spending.

Perhaps you could tell them you aren’t very clever about your tech stuff and suggest they could use the mobile data on their phones. I’m not good either so I hope someone more knowledgeable comes along.

Is there a limit to how much you can download for what you are paying?

I'm not certain, but I think some accounts are less expensive if you don't download masses of films or games. We certainly don't!

If your new neighbours do (especially over Christmas), it might take you over your download quota. While the neighbours have clearly offered to pay you, there might be other complications if the usual limit is exceeded.

It might be worthwhile checking your account and their usage before you agree.
