With my Experience of BT Connect the business version of BT Broadband......I wouldnt touch any package from BT especially if it were £29.99 a month. I have had no problems with ntl and am not interested in a static IP which incidently hasnt changed in 2 years anyway. My experience

Bulldog £21.99 - NA
Pipex £23.44 - OK
Ntl- OK
BT £29.99 - ****e
AOL £27.99 - NA


As mentioned by another poster on the Forum Pipex are far from perfect......they are good in my dealings compared to BT Connect (useless)

I think ever consumer company in the UK needs to look at getting their services right not just ntl. I am still yet to experience what I class a quality service from anyone.
-BT
-SKY
-Many Large ISPs
-NTL

All those leave a lot to be desired in my opinion its choosing the lesser of the evils which is up to the individual. I can not really see how people can critise a product that hasnt been launched or say that ntl is making a mess of running their cable broadband service with 1 million customers 900000+ of whom have still yet to join this site!! Obviously the waiting list is long for this site!! They must somehow be doing something that catches the publics imagination where others arent whatever their faults.....and should be given credit for that.

I personally wouldnt have a home ADSL Product anyway certainally not 512k because i am yet to experince download speeds above 45k which is pitiful, obviously the contention ratios in this area are being maxed. At work im not impressed.......upload is faster which is nice, browsing seems slower in general. Also it disconnects randomly and can not reconnect, it has to dial up erguuhhhh and get a alleged speed of 576kbs which on closer inspection turns out nearer the 350kbs to 450kbs speed. Only way im changing is if I move to an area without cable
