With reference to the pipex deal of £23 per month, they charge youa bout £4 per month if you rent one of their modems, which obviously over a period of time accumulates, and as once you have broadband you will never go back to a regualr dial up service again it may be worth purchasing your own modem. Dont quote me on this but you can get them for under £100.
I am very reluctant to say this, i would probably go for the ntl service, but only if i knew an engineer who worked fo rthem who could come and fix any problems with the line without me having to go through their so called 'customer service department'. The only reason why i would use ntl is that they are the only broadband service provider to my knowledge who offer a 1Mbps connection for £20 per month extra to the normal broadband service.
With any luck blue yonder will start providing this option soon at a smilair price, and if so i will be first in the queue.
If anyone does have the ntl 1Mbps connection, is it worth the money, and do you get a contant connection at 1Mbps?
