Can anyone recommend a decent ISP. I'm fed up to the back teeth with
Tiscali or Talk talk or whatever they call themselves first of all their
newsgroup service was virtually non existent so I went to a German uni
which I pay an extra £10 a year for but it's a good service. And now
recently my Emails are failing to come through,. no information if their
server has gone down. I can do without the hassle. Where do I go?

I'm with Pipex - part of the same group which is Opal Telecom, IIRC.

Pipex did give warning they were to cease their own 'free' news feed -
supplied by GigaNews - and suggested I sign up direct with them and pay.

I'm now using either news.aioe.org or news.eternal-september.org both
of which are free, and seem to work ok for the newsgroups I want.

Many have reported problems with the e-mail alias feature on some of the
companies owned by them.

So far I'm ok.
