Cheers

^^ GF's parents are with them and i've set it up so you dont need to use thier software but agreed, customer service etc is shite.

Ok, looking through different ISP's i think Plusnet is the one to go for.

going to go for the premium package, starts at £11.99 for 3 months then goes to £19.99.

anybody have any experience with them? are they good? customer service etc? line speeds?

My dad has been using them for 6 years. No problems, even when BT bought them. He's on a pay as you use system. Gets so many gig per month then pays for each gig after that.

I'm with plusnet and what a cracking company from day 1.

I think because they aren't as big there process is so simple.

Had it 5 months now and never had to send an email or make a phone call to them.

That has a 80GB download limit doesnt it?

Be is completely unlimited, i used them for just over 4 years and never had one issue. Superb service.

If someone uses 80gb in 1 month they need to get out more.

Well I download quite abit of HD material which comes in on averagre around 15Gb, that would only be 4 and abit films per month, plus all the other "general" downloading and browsing, plus online gaming it all adds up.

Imo why would you go to a provided with a cap when you can go to highly rated one who doesnt.

Cheers for the comments guys.

Adam- yeah it has an 80GB Cap, with my Current BT Broadband, i'm only using circa 25-30GB a month so it will suit us perfectly.
