I see there doing 2mb unlimited for £17.99, is it worth it?

Im with bt openworld option 4 now and paying £29.99 for the same deal as above, phoned bt and they said they could do £26 for 12month contract.

or is there any other alternatives?
 
Tiscali are awful.. avoid at all costs!!! Hehehe.

I managed to get out of my 12month contract early, but in the 8 or so months I was with them I had very intermittant connections, loads of web sites wouldn't work without a proxy (ebay was one of them), really bad download speed (10KBps) etc etc...
 
AVOID!!!!

I was stuck in a 12 month contract with them, note the word stuck.

If you want me to list what was up then just say so, but i think the words, dont even consider it should give you a general idea of the list of bother :p

If you really feel the need for cheap unlimited lines, then I am very tempted by Demon myself, maybe check them out.

Don't go near them at any cost - they're scum, and you'll be stuck in hell for 12 months.

Awful speeds (oversubscribed network both on IPStream and Datastream), absolutely awful outsourced customer service etc.

When I was using a friend's Tiscali connection a couple of weeks ago, they were getting 300kbps (at best) on a 2mbps line, and 200-400ms latency (made SSH virtually unuseable).

Please, please, please don't do it :(

balls to it, i phoned bt and got the discount, only £3 a month discount tho, but im happy with the speeds and connection, they said any line upgrades that happen, i will get at no cost, but would imagine this will happen for everyone.
