Default On Pipex Broadband - Anthing around better?

I am currently on Pipex 1gb download for £17.99/month. Speaking with them today I can go on the 8Mb service for £19.99/month. A quick line test by them recons I will get 1.5Mb speed (BT figure) but it may be faster.

Included in the £19.99 is 15Mb download which is plenty enough for me.

Should I look at any other providers, are there an better packages available?

cheers Simon

If you can get 1.5gb (1500mb) speed then I'd go for it

However I think they meant 1.5mb speed.

There are plenty of cheaper suppliers for that sort of speed/bandwidth requirements out there. Try Eclipse for instance...

They have promised new hardware for Feb07 but after 12 months of appaling service we are probably off to ZEN.
