I have been with Virgin since the blueyonder days (before virgin took over) and the speeds and reliability are fairly good. They are the only choice if you dont live close to a telephone exchange really (and want decent speeds).

I think I can count the number of outages I have had (total loss of internet service) within 5 years on one hand, each outage lasted from 2 to 8 hours.

I started with 4mb and got bumped upto 10mb (which I am still on), the occasional speed check I run comes out at between 9 and 10mb DL so thats acceptable to me.

I have only had dial up before broadband so I cant compare it with other providers.
