GOD

NTL are absolutely and positively hopeless.
After holding for about 20 minutes I get some woman who doesn't have a clue what she's doing, asks a load of repeated questions about my email address, etc, then puts me on hold again. 10 minutes later the phone goes dead. What a joke NTL are.

I don't really need to buy it. I have started uploading stuff back to my NTL space now. My brother bought a redirect address and he only uses it for the email so he lets me use the website. So that's sorted.

I use Eclipse internet ( www.eclipse.co.uk ) for my 512k/256k ADSL. Works great, very nice pings in games, they say they specialise in gaming. Its cheap which is important, one of the main reason i use them, only one place cheaper i found, but they offer up to 6 static ip addresses without extra charge, so they work out better value really. Alot cheaper when you think of the comapnies which charge about £2 an ip a month extra.

Anyway since i have been using them the only major problem i have had was one 12 hour outage, which was apparently caused by BT screwing up. The one tihng which i would point out is, they ar enot known for their good technical support, not that its no good, just you may have to wait a while. But i nver use tech support

and as longas you know what your doing you dont really need to either, as they offer alot of the account detaisl online.

I recommend em
