As A tech, I can say they are all as bad as each other however there are the odd one that is better than the other but they are all under the "Good" rating. I'm yet to ever deal with an excellent ISP. The biggest problem with ISP's is the support. Plusnet is one of the better ones out there imoComment

Thanks to all - I have dropped Zen a line to see if they can offer me anything, if not it's off to plusnet for me.Comment

Result! got my download limit upped to enough to take care of Netflix, iPlayer etc at no extra cost (well a few pence a month) and no need to change ISP.
Did I mention I am giving up my TV licence? Stopping watching live broadcasts so no need for telly licence any more.Comment

This includes the use of devices such as a computer, laptop, mobile phone or DVD/video recorder.Last edited by GazCol; 26 September 2013, 10:50.Comment

I don't think that'll wash for much longer, especially with iPlayer.You need to be covered by a licence if you watch TV online at the same time as it's being broadcast on conventional TV in the UK or the Channel Islands.
The law is clear, the BBC just wished it reflected current reality and technology rather than old technical limitations....
But if the BBC wished to prove a point they could probably get a judge to agree that a computer able to run flash with an internet connection = need to have TV licence...merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
