Nildram are excellent, they run the FUP via a disenmcodex filter, with a 72gig rootbar hooked up to the Server.

Ima with Uk online 8mb for £24.99 for total unlimited useage.
Horrendous when they first began, but rock solid connection for last 6 months.....They do 1mb unlimited for £9.99.....Or 22mb at £29.99 .
Customer service not that great(long wait on phone etc).
have a nice weekend all.

I've had NTL for about 6 years and their speed has increased great. If your like me and download tons of movies, games etc then you definetly want unlimited. I was on 3MB but they updated everyone from 3MB to 5MB soon to upraged everyone to 10MB and their prices are dropping also.
With 5MB I can get speeds of 600+kB/sec from good torrent sites. The only thing is though the upload speed sucks, maxing out at 50kB/sec. But I think thats the case with all UK isp's.
Sweden is the place to be when It comes to ISP's 10MB for £20 a month!! plus they got 100Mbit/sec!

You know NTL say we all got 10Mb but thats bollox. With 10 Mb we should be getting max download speeds of about 1220 kB/sec but I never top 800. Not that we really need these speeds but why say 10 Mb when true package we are getting is actually about 7Mb.

Iron,
I was about to post that I use Nildram and to check on adslguide.org.uk as they do speedtests etc... but you've done your research.
I've used Nildram for 2+ years now and only had to reset the router around 3 times and I think it was problems my end. Had one other problem, but customer service was ace and it was sorted very quickly.
They get my vote.
Cheers,
Eoan

I have just got bulldog, its 8MB unlimited and none of that FUP crap.
I was on tiscali which was great untill my 'unlimited' service got limited because i used it too much!!! What a pisstake! Its this "fair use policy" and knowing how much bandwidth u use Iron i would avoid any company that has such a clause, Bulldog is the best i found without it.
Just read the Tiscali fair use policy... isn't it only 'limited' if you're using it loads between 6pm and 11pm? i.e. you can use it as much as you like (for torrents or whatever) off-peak? |
