I certainly dont want more BT related inet providers. I like the diversity we have at the moment. What could be argued is that there are quite a few, which makes it quite hard to choose one under the impression of "the best one"

Dont expect to get upgrades from pipex btw XD

Me not happy! I switched to Plusnet to get away from BT. They're following me!

If BT buy Plusnet that will probably push me to another ISP - unless they give a better service (doubt they will).

...And so plusnet continue their slide from one of the best ISP's to one of the worst, gladly im moving to a cable area on tuesday so its with a sigh of relief i bid goodbye to plusnet.
