I think their reliable.
Been with them since Jan 03 and this is the first time its been down.
Few Mates are on cable and bt and they seem to always have trouble.
Most people I know are on pipex and I'm the first to lose connection.

Not quite Telewest doesn't use BT? Or at least i don't think thery do because they use cable rather then adsl.

Been with Pipex Broadband for years, can count on the fingers of one hand the number of times it has been a problem. Other providers seem to have more frequent outages according to friends.
