Check out http://www.adslguide.org.uk/ for comparisons of different providers and packages, as well as user reviews and hardware reviews, and decent forums if you are having probs.

Nildram
Zen
Eclipse and
Pipex

On Nildram myself and no complaints here. Get 515/268Kbps on speed tests. Prompt personal response from their tech support and they post on the forums often too.

Doesnt Nildram have a bandwithc limit though?

Only on the 1 and 2MB lines (something like 30GB a month). The 512Kb is unmetered.

Can't believe you are still (trying) to use those e-mails for money things.

why not try bulldog?

They have great prices, and are apparently a great service.

They have 1mb connections for like 30 quid a month!

Thats only in certain areas of London afaik. It is also only at certain times of the day (after 6pm).

All providers are near by equal - go for cheap...

You can only transfer so much a month, i.e. 3gig or so.

Aww.. man really. I didn't know this.
When you say "so much a month", what exactly dose that entail.
Eg, dose it just apple to download's amount or to all the data activity up/down the line through out the whole month ???????
Because then wouldn't gaming on adsl be impossible ?
as you would easily go over 30gig in just one WEEK's tfc/cs/ut online gaming.
PLEASE SAY IM WRONG...

A Whole night of gaming would be like 10MB, which, is **** all.

It wont affect gaming in the slightest unless you are downloading the entire games before hand.

Try it on 56k. Game for a few hours then look at how much data has been pushed through. Not normally much.
