Lots of site access problems - changing proxies always seems to fix it, but why should I have to bother ? for instance to watch BBC online news I have to usually switch proxies before it will let me have the 'fast quality' streams.

I always seem to have to do this too to be able to view the broadband streams. Of course, if they had no proxies then we would not have to have this stupid problem.
I have been with ntl two and a bit months too. Here is my view of the service...
It's complete ****e.
Email is Ok but seems to have a habit of breaking down when it wants to, web browsing can be dreadfully slow at times - bah those stupid proxies, newsgroups are completely useless when it comes to binaries and downloading text only messages.

In all the time I've used the net, I don't know of one other ISP who regularly has these problems.

Neither have I. I have never had an ISP that uses forced transparent proxies, nor had such an unreliable email and news service. I shall want to jump ship at the earliest opportunity.
