I'd appreciate themorgans2005.plus.com in the referrer if he does sign up as it saves me 50p a month
Cheers

Hello
PlusNet are having lots of issues at the moment. http://www.adslguide.org.uk and the ISP forum are a good place to read.
I always recommend Zen (http://www.zenadsl.co.uk).

U cant FTP to the webspace on BD either 
CS is as mentioned non existant. Only plus side to using BD is that they intend to rollout 8mb and ADSL2+ to all exchanges in the near future. Mindu all decent ISPs will be following suit pretty soon anyway.

No, you do have more. The question of course is, how much does HE need
Where can you see how good your ISP compared to others? Been to that ADSL.org site and it asked me about my ISP, but did not show me the results of othere

Thanks for that link. Dunno what I thought that pag was for before, but I had got that far....doh!! 
ICQ is pretty good for sharing vids n apps for several reasons
1) its free
2) it resumes broken/cancelled transfers from where you leave off
3) no limit on the size of the transfer
Oh, and can I have a link to your webspace to see what you have

Be careful with +net that you don't get stung £50+ for domain registration renewal. If as I did you register a domain and then move it to +net, they will charge an extortionate amount for domain renewal. One way to avoid it is to pay the £1 / mth domain hosting fee. Domain renewal is then "free". See http://bbs.adslguide.org.uk/showthre...s&Main=1953425 for one of the people complaining. After several emails I managed to get the £50 refunded and switched to the £1 / mth option.

Mine is active today and never had a domain registration to swap over so will check my bank acount later to make sure there are no hidden charges!
One silly thing they do is not to tell you the account details to put in your router until they have taken over your connection which means this morning I couldn't get on the web to get the email telling me how to connect, had to wait until I got to work
I know they expect you to use their free dial up but come on who wants to p!ss about with doing that these days.
