Happy Face 29 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 We are with Tiscali at home and they have been OK. I'll ring Telewest to cancel tonight. They'd better offer 20 Mb for £20/Month to keep me or I'll give them a slap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Video and wide access media is killing the web. Throttling might help stave off meltdown, but only genuine backbone upgrades will ever help.

Jimbo 133 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I've been with Tiscali for about 3 months now and they have been fine, speeds have been the most consistent of any ISP I've ever been with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 14030 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I'm with Plus too. Never had any problems - the package I'm on has (fairly generous) bandwidth limits from 4pm-midnight and is unlimited at all other times, and they give you ample warning when you're approaching your monthly limit. Customer service used to be a bit dodgy, but now it's much better, including online troubleshooting involving real people and all that. Plus (as mentioned) I like the fact that they just let you get on with life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
