I use btinternet.com and have been doing so since summer 2000.
I did try the AOL free trial just before Xmas but was not impressed.....very slow.....takes over your computer.....can NOT be removed fully from your hard disc.
My bt account is 24 hour for £14.99 a month all in. I have not had many problems and usually get a good connection speed. The only down side is they still charge 50p a min for tech support (outrageous!)but you can get support via email.
Good luck
