Just to add my bit and no doubt ****** some people off - I personally havent encountered any serious problems in the last 12 months. Sure, I've had the odd bit of downtime here and there (I'm talking 30 mins at the most). I have never had an issue with the news servers (except during peak times) where they can dip to 100Kb/s at times. All in all, I'm happy with the service.

I do think it helps that I live in an area that I would guess has lots of TV subscribers and not too many bb customers so I dont have to deal with oversubscribed UBR's etc...

I tend to get full bandwidth 95% of the time (I'm on 2mb/s).

***OMFG - that is just the definition of irony*** Literally two minutes after that post, I got kicked of the net, my modem went ballistic trying to sync and its only just come back on.

BAD BAD NTL - I swear somebody was watching my type and did it on purpose!!!!
