Searching through the archives, Metronet was the people's choice in
2005. What's the best way to go in 2007 when we also have joint deals
with telephone/TV etc.

I don't need TV, rarely use a mobile, don't use the telephone much,
but use the internet a lot and would ideally like something faster
than my present AOL (£19.99 pm) at stated 2272 kbps. On the other
hand, a cheaper and reliable broadband would suit fine. AOL technical
support is good, so I'd like decent support since things do go wrong
at times.

Recommendations?


I don't think there is one.. they all seem to have their own set of
problems!.

Though Entanet and Zen broadband are very good, but aren't cheap.

Ntl if your in one of their areas can be very good sometimes better then
what ADSL is but ntl's customer service can go rather wrong sometimes;!.

However if its ADSL then your limited in how far you are from the
serving exchange and that is why your speed may be no more then the
2.272 K you describe.

We have several services at different locations with Eclipse who do a
good service for £15 a month but in recent times their customer service
isn't quite what it used to be having become rather "jobsworth" in
approach, but I haven't heard anyone say anything good about any low
cost ADSL service for quite some time now. Its coming down to you get
what you pay for!.

And most all are dependent on good old BT!......
