Pipex ADSL

MadGamer · 14-03-2004, 15:08

Hi Guys, well i think its time to move to another ISP. Demon has been so slow for me over the last couple of days that my dad has had enough. So i thought i would turn to you guys to give me some opinions on Pipex ADSL. What are they like and how cheap are they? My dad is currently paying ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£25 a month for Demon.

Cheers

I have Pipex, I switched to them from BT ADSL. They keep you well informed via email and snail mail how your order is progressing. They also have info on faults etc easily viewable on t'internet. I have no complaints, except they are slower than my BT line by 20-30 kb/s on a 512 line.
Mate at work tho is considering legal action after being without service for a month whilst BT and Pipex argued about a fault.
Most people at my work seem to be going to Nildram.

Are you having any other problems? Changing provider over a few days of poor service seems a bit over the top to me?

It might be. I have used the msconfig tool in XP to disable any unwanted programs that do not need to be started by windows.
