Okay so I'm wanting to move to a new ISP since BT are crap and they charge a lot for an Up to 8MB connection when our line is capable of faster speeds.

I'm just curious to who you think the best UK ISP is and why? Let me know what you think.

Thanks

Nope. Apparently our line supports up to 16MB so we definitely want to switch to a better ISP.

We upgraded to 8mb on bt but if you test it you hardly get that, my uncle works with bt and he said because so many people had upgraded there was more bandwith being used so we would have been better off staying with what we had.

If your line is good enough, else Virgin Media.

I've noticed, the max we get from BT is 5MB (or just over if we're lucky). We're going to call them tomorrow to try and get a MAC code while they try and persuade us to stay. Thanks for the reply.

Be is available in our area, has been for nearly a year I think. I've heard Be is good and we're probably going to try them out.
I just wanted to see which ISPs people thought were the best.
