at the moment metronet are great with 150 gig per month limit if you pay £28 ish, however plus net who have just bought them may change that in the not too distant future. Zen seem to be highly thought of also. Check out www.adslguide.org for a list of em

Hello

I've been with Zen (http://www.zenadsl.co.uk) for three years and they are by far the most reliable.

I'm trying to change at the moment from E7 (don't ask).

I've found it quite hard to match my existing tariff if I stick with an uncapped service. Presently thinking about Nildrem, which includes 2.5Gb, and then something like 90p per Gig after that.

Echo the above about Zen, but too pricey for me.

AOL - but not with their own browser, with a modem router.

Not one day off in years, and no limits or strangling at peak times.

Oh and you get free dial up 0800 free while on the move and a free wireless router if you sign up now for the platinum package.

I can guarantee you 4 years of unlimited broadband without a glitch.

I HATE their browser but I love the platinum service, and I can assure you I have wide ranging knowledge on this.

Everyone else strangles their connections for P2P, has downtime, lack of servers etc. etc.

I haven't had to phone aol once.

BT business - reasonable
BT-yahoo - ****e
telewest - ****e
ntl - ****e
tiscali - strangled
wannadoo - aaarrrrggghhhh
