Just put in my order for BT Openworld last week. Installation on Oct 18th. I'll feedback on how it goes. Cable not an option here. Local planning regs mean it'll be years before the roads can be dug up. If its anything to to with NTL they can s*d off! NTL have arbitrarily decided to shut down the Cable and Wireless ISP CWCOM which I've been on for ~2 yrs. Basically the plug is pulled on 30th Nov with no migration to NTL offered. So C& W customers basically just binned.
The worst bit is NTL never told me. Not so much as an email. Learnt about it by accident.
