brixtonites, what ISP do you use and would you recommend them?

[avenginangel]

Does anyone use Orange? Just thinking of going over because my mobile's with them and I can get a cheap deal - but I'm scared to make the switch... And is the Be There economy package any good, or do you need the more expensive options?

I'm puzzled as to why Be isn't mentioned in Which? magazine (well it wasn't last time I looked).


Have just looked to see if any new reports were out and there was one for this month, but STILL no Be on the internet report

Zen is top rated for customer satisfaction with 85% of customers happy.

Orange - 36% of customers happy

I've been with Tiscali for five years. Apart from one downtime (a fault at the exchange rather than with Tiscali) no complaints. Best value too, as I included my line rental and land-line calls in with the deal.

You've been lucky then, Tiscali are just about the worst ISP there is.

Will you be downloading much music, video or games? If not, then the value packages are fine.

Tiscali on the customer satisfaction front are rated above

Orange
Kingston Communications
One.Tel
Supanet
AOL
Talk Talk
Bulldog
Virgin Media
Toucan Surf
Homecall

(order reversed. Orange is the worse apparently)

i've been given a solution by be's customer services, boohoo, can you email me over the account number and your date of birth, and i'll change the payment thingy...

Be. Best I've used. Couple of wobbles recently, otherwise excellent.

I heard they had a bad reputation for spam prevention (or lack of) - but I got a free spam filter on Outlook to cope with that.
