Stu maybe you can show us all some comparisons then to back this up.
Ten ISP's for example........

This would add some weight to an other wise too often one sided argument.

Im not trying to pick a fight mate, im just suggesting that some facts would back this up.

I dont agree that i have ever experienced a level of service so poor as you describe. I would describe my 9 years of service as very good in fact and good value for money
