TalkTalk & BT down
My best advice is - don't put your eggs all in one basket!
My broadband ISP is EE
My Router is BT (with 2 EE spares and a Belkin spare)
My 2ndary Email is TalkTalk, but hardly monitored
I have a 3 (Hutchison network) 3G Mobile Wifi Dongle for when I'm away from home/wifi (e.g. at the roadside) which is also unlocked and I use a VPN when overseas
I never have a problem when networks go down, but if I did I could swap out 1 element for another and regain connectivity within a couple of minutes.
I used to do similar, but the problem with that plan is when things go wrong on a long term basis, they all blame each other for the fault.
