    Question Need Same Package but Different ISP! Time to Change? Bye Nildram?

    I have been with nildram for a few years now but am no longer happy with the service as my download speeds have dropped by half most of the time and i am getting disconected every so offten.

    I have herd that it has all gone downhill sine pipex has taken over and that many Nildram users have also desided its time to change.

    Have been looking on this thread and have seen losts of sugestions which ISP to use.

    I was looking at freedom to surf but i herd that they have also been taken over by pipx as well? Is this True? And if so would there be any point switching from Nildram - Freedom to surf?

    Then i thought Eclipse, and is was sounding very good untill i saw that it was a 12month contract.

    I am looking for an ISP that has

    • One or no more than 3 months contract.
    • Has an unlimated or a Cap no less than 40GB
    • Will have a connection speed of 8meg.
    • and finaly... it must not be any more than £26 a month.


    Can any one recomned Such an ISP or am i just dreaming?
    Shame as this is the package i get with Nildram but no longer stable download rates and random dropping out connection

    Thanks 4 your time

    f2s, 50gb cap but only at peak times, 8mb is possible, if you stick with them for less than 6 months you have to pay the activation charge (£49.99)

    £23/month.

    EDIT - just re-read your post, worth a try, though they are now owned by Pipex the end user experience is still vastly different afaik

    Yes but if Pipex own Nildram and F2S then doesen't that mean there will be no difference?

    you gotta pay for service with a smile.

    Manage on 20gig limit?

    Zen

    £25 per month. They are the boys

    Once again, I must ask...what on EARTH Do you use 40 gig for? I have 3 Pc's, two that game every night, use Skype every day, work from home on a VPN on a 4th PC (laptop) surf Hexus every day, shop online, live online....

    and use under 10 gb on average.
