I think you can get unlimited usage for £5 if you're a customer bud... would save me like £20 a month which although isn't alot, is £250 a year... which would pay for xmas.... might be worth it....

Uww didn't realise that mate; think I'll give them a buzz and find out then.
Defo worth saving £20 a month, cause I'm a tight sod and that's 125 miles of petrol

Just out of interest, can you still use P2P programs & stuff with orange? or do they block things like that?

Yer; been with them for live forever, ok since the exchange was enabled.

Just looked up this offer.. and there is a fair use policy, (don't download big files between 6pm & 11pm)
& you can pay £5 a month to have it unlimited..
Not bad.. but don't like the sound of the download restrictions much..

I use torrentspy with no issues - on Orange.

As far as I know it doesn't, I haven't had any problems, but I'm not a hardcore l33ch3r lol.
Never had one problem with it, speed seems reasonable, I'm on 2meg which is the fastest for my exchange.

I was with Wanadoo well before those barstards at Orange bought it, never had a problem to be fair, and they dont seem to be looking at usage, our connection gets shared between 8 business and personal computers and were doing about 70-90Gb a month

Explain...?
1. Yes P2P is throttled
2. Yes NNTP is throttled also
3. minimum contract is 12 months (if you leave before you pay the remaining months)
4. contacting customer service - it seems extremely hard to contact c/s and to get anything out of them whether its sorting billing or obtaining a MAC.
Back in May this year pipex upgraded their systems (for want of a better word), since then billing has got into a bit of a state, monies being taken, monies not being taken, refunds not being given when promised, impossible getting hold of billing, the control panel on mypipex hasn't worked properly since.
The network (as far as I am aware) is rock solid but if you do need to contact c/s you could be in for a bit of a shock. There is no "indian call centre" but it has been extremely difficult to get through at various times of day.
Emails sent to c/s or t/s rarely get answered in a reasonable time frame (I know someone waiting atm for a reply to an email sent in 6th September!!).
If I was you I would read a few of the posts on www.adslguide.org in the pipex section, most of what you asked has been covered and you can see the difficulties some ppl have had with pipex atm. Not saying this will continue for ever but its not happy reading.

I was with pipex. took ages to get through to them and still waiting on a refund after they kept charging me line rental after closing. c***s.
service was fine though,
now with orange, pay extra £10 and its unlimited. been fine so far, wireless on the bundled livebox is shite though, went back to my trusty belkin router for wireless.
p2p was fine on both of them. 1mb connection though.
