Speaking from experience Bulldog sucked before C+W bought them and suck afterwards, however C+W have invested in them and given them cash for much needed network upgrades (Bulldog either had issues with local bandwidth, core bandwidth or transit bandwidth, and their entire service ran off of a single Redback SMS 10k).

Be haven't built out any network yet and said their initial rollout would be in London only. Minor issue also that the 24Mbit service they advertise uses a technology that hasn't been approved for use in the UK yet, so they'll have to wait for that before they switch anything on.

They certainly seem to have a good pedigree though, however be a long time before they leave London due to lack of a national network to carry their service on.
