I can't complain, to much, about Bulldog's service, although admittedly, when I was upgraded to the "16 meg" (aka open the gate) plan, we had problems.

Main problem which I even experience now, is disconnection issues.

I went through a hell of alot of emails, phone calls and stress to try and get it resolved, but even now it's not resolved.

So saying that, I like the fact I can get the MAX speed (well, 16mb anyways) and a 1mb upload, but I'm not happy with the company's service (I doubt many are heh)

Is there anyone out there that offers a similiar service?

Problem is, because it's a bulldog phone line, I can't do any checks on the phone number to see whether XXX service is available (Like Be and the other 24mb provider)
I can't get NTL because my brother allready has NTL broadband (And won't share it I might add)

I was thinking of SKy, but same problem again, they require a BT phone line to check it, which means what? I'd have to cancel bulldog, get a BT line, JUST to check whether it's available? heh

If anyone else lives near me, I'm in Worthing, my closest exchange is the Worthing (Swandean) one (postcode - bn13 2bn)
