Thanks for all the replies!
I would have been on earlier, but all last night I was looking at 'verifying user name & password' which is as far as it got, if it even got that far on Madasafish dialup, Duckbutt. I've been with them for years and they've got steadily worse.
I'm looking at Fast4net as the new ISP but they don't do hosting, hence the question.
