Well I just get mix views. Some days it fast as hell and some days it like a snail... Sometime I have to put up with speed like a snail for about 5 days before it picks up again. My local exchange NEVER ever been in Red always green as i live in a small village...

I just dont know what to do to be honest. Is it really an pain to move ISP? It worries if i move and both start billing me know what i mean as i seen people on here leaving an isp and still getting billed.

I am on Plus.Net and it's awful.

At 8am when I wake up during the week, i turn on NZB-O-Matic and start downloads from USENET and get 250k/s on average but as soon as I get home at 6pm the speed is a pathetic 20k/s. This weekend has been even worse it has really become a shocking state of affairs, so I have asked to leave thing is I have no idea who is a suitable replacement.

Hmmm another customer with a problem this weekend though it was only me. I have found this weekend a nightmare too but it been great all week thou

on an up to 8mb line, those speeds above are terrible and thats only an indication of the performance issues. I try just browsing the internet and it's weofully slow - like dialup infact.

I have finally asked for them to cancel my account but I need to have an ISP lined up so they can give me a MAC code.

That is Poor..... Let us know who you decide to join with and I am going to look for a new provider and move too but who i dont know and like to go to one that is not tied to a 12 month contract
