Re: broadband?
I was with Pipex for nearly 5 years, faultless service, only switched because I get free BB from Orange due to my mobile contract. £25/month wasn't to be sneezed at

Re: broadband?
I have broadband here in Spain which costs me around 25 quid a month. It's so much better than dial up. As my computer is on 24/7 for the UkNova site, I couldn't do without it.

Re: broadband?
I'm still on dial up......my computer is antiquated and due for upgrading soon....I MAY go broadband then....but then again I may not. I don't do a lot of downloading.......and I can't see the sense in going for something that I won't get the use of.

Re: broadband?
TalkTalk - £20.99 per month. Calls to all UK landlines (01 / 02 numbers) & 28 other countries are free.
Not too bad. Broadband disconnects on it's own about once a day. I can live with this, because my pc is usually on all day.

Re: broadband?
Virgin.... terribly unreliable, constant speed changes even on their top package, and they keep saying its a problem on our end (which it isn't me being well up on computers, dad knowing basic networking and an uncle who's job is networking ) used to be on bulldog with faultless service.

Re: broadband?
Bulldog (though the customer base are now owned by Pipex)
Im a pipex customer on the bulldog network, im unsure if actual new 'Pipex' customers are connected to the Bulldog (faster, more bandwidth) network..

Re: broadband?
BT Hub ( moved back to them after I was messed around Big Style with Tiscali) works fine so far, having said that I can only get 1mg so not so good...
I have problems with the hub phone line ( not got the hub phone yet, they have ran out) when anyone calls me all three phones ring at once and carry on even if you have picked up... |

Re: broadband?
Tiscali broadband £15.99/month.
No real problems, though you do wonder how you ever managed with dial up when you've changed to broadband. I used to smoke a fag waiting for Accy Web to load, so there's an extra saving for a start.
