    Moving from Sky, which ISP's give 2mb upload?

    I have been on Sky for the past couple of years and while the price is very good the service I've been getting hasn't been consistent.

    My attenuation is 30 db and I'm about 800M from the exchange but due to constant changes with Sky at the exchange my speed is currently down to 7.5Mb download and 768kbps upload. Bear in mind that for a good period of time I was getting 11Mb download and 1.1 Mbs upload.

    I've decided to see if I can find another ISP that primarily does a 2Mb upload for as little money as possible. Can anybody recommend one?

    Sounds like Be* to me. Not sure if you need the Pro package to get Annex M (for the up to 2.5Mbps upstream), but I can certainly recommend them as an ISP.

    Just remember that Annex-M eats into your download speed.

    Hence if you get an extra 1.5 up, you'll probably get 1.5 less down.
