i've been on sky at the new house and it's a 3rd of the price for 3x the downlaod speed
no comparison really
plus i get free wireless and a 4 lead router as opposed to a single little modem that i can only run one pc from
plus 16meg bb sounds cool AND because i'm a dual customer (2 houses, 2 packages et etc) i get a shed load of money off my sky plus instalation as well and i've gone sky talk as well at both houses because i've been subverted by the giggling girl on the end of the phone

my case has been that ever since orage took over from wanadoo it's been a shit service and a shit connection, and they have shit customer service as well when things go wrong, the line cuts out at random which means turning the computer off and on again to restart it, random connection issues that last for hours at a time, endless phonecalls to the service centres with the same end result, they can't help and don't have a clue as to what the problem could be
i think thrush had the same problems and it was only the fact that i was going to lose my email address that i've kept paying the extorsionate payments

the last straw really though was that password fuck up

imagine if your password was fred and they asked you for the second and 4th letters and you said "R for robert and D for donald" and they reply came back "i'm sorry, those are not the letters we have
and then, when you've finished going through evey other security questionaire to tell them it's really you, they come abck with "for your peice of mind, the letters in your password as F R E D
