I know I'm being pedantic but Blueyonder is a Telewest product.
I like the fact that they own the cable modem they provide you with hence if it breaks they have to fix it, and their technical support is also very good.
BT once had to install a new line for our neighbours...so they disconnected ours because they "thought" we weren't using it. The less I have to do with them the better..

I am sure that the Pipex price looks good and am tempted however I am aware that they are charging what appears to be less than cost.
You may have got confused with the activation charge, which is £25 I think (was more when I joined), or you may not...

Regarding Pipex... cannot fault them. Good connection and on line for as long as you want. Will never go back to dial-up and you can keep your old e-mail address if you know how to configure your pc. Got to be one if not the best avail at the moment. Plus if you recomend a friend you get 1 month free......let me know!!

Agree with comments about pipex had the service for about 8 months before moving home.
But now AOL have throw in the modem pack and connection for free so should be a good deal to go for.

Just upgraded to Pipex Broadband. Couldn't connect to start with and must say Pipex helpline very good. Problem eventually tracked down by BT to a cable in my house. BT bloke super helpful. Can't say more as don't want to drop him in the dwang
Now all I have to do is figure out how to set up a wireless connection to the other puter in the house

Been on Pipex ADSL Extreme service for two weeks now....! No way will I go back to Dial up now. Having ADSL changes the way you use your PC and the internet, at least it has for me. Just listening to a Moby track I downloaded from Kazaa (I use the Kazaa Lite version as it Doesn't have the spyware). 
Cool Mod

Yes it was free. But I guess all good packages like this run out eventually.
However, I think their Extreme package is still good with a £29 activation fee. The third month is free. I still think it is the best deal around.
I bought my own filters and modem and got everything else free. The service is brilliant, and have never had a moments cause for concern.
I have recommended two people to Pipex and I got another two months free!
