Is anyone with these guys?

2mb for about £35 is damn cheap!!!!!

I know it's been mentioned on LOC before but not sure if anybody is with them. Does sound good provided your phone line is good enough, Rodders couldn't even get 1Mb on his line when he tried to upgrade his ADSL connection.

i have checked mine and its good for 2mb

but i always believe what you pay is what you get.

Hmmm, looks interesting. Wonder what their contention ratio is on 2Mb?

At that price probably 50:1 - will be interesting to see how many of these cheap providers are still around in a couple of years time..... It's like Steve says

I tried to upgrade my line to 1MB a few weeks back and it all went wrong - ended up being cut off completely by mistake so I swapped ISP's in the end and went with Zen, here's hoping they don't go bankrupt now!!

Still on 512Kb though (might try and upgrade via Zen now)

I was looking at the 2k I spoke to BT the other day about it and they are not offering it!

How can other companys offer it when BT can't?

[aido]

BT have that as a business product, not a consumer product (don't forget BTOpenworld was started as a separate company) but it's £130 a month.....

They offer the infrastructure and it's up to the resellers to do with it as they want I guess.

The thing is though, if someone's going for the 2MB product at home it's pretty obvious that it's for leeching purposes and it's usually these users who bring the highest cost to the ISP as opposed to people who get broadband and just occasionally surf or check emails etc...

i'm with bulldog communications, its great, no problems ever unlike when i was with bt openwoe. high speed (2Mb) and cheap (around 40-45 i thing - not 100% sure)

"2mb for about £35 is damn cheap!!!!! "

Sounds too good to be true Steve, yet more money leaving this country!!

500K will work up to -60db and 1Mg up to only -40db on our network, so you would have to be pretty close to the exchange to get 2Mg over our twisted pairs.

Britian is pretty good at building infrastructures, then let the foreigners use it at nil cost, suppose thats what they call "fair competiton"..I'll be selling Tesco baked beans fron the back of my van soon
