Pipex did exactly the same for us :D Although it keeps on breaking down, though I guess that is actually BT's fault.

im with bt-yahoo 2 meg, it is fast but download restrictions are gonna kick in soon....


Does pipex have any restrictions

How much would it cost to migrate from bt to pipex to a 1meg - 2meg deal?

I joined up with the 1meg service and the speed is impressive, must be blistering with 2meg

Earlier in the year they said that they will upgrade my 512k connection with a 1mb connection before August (this was in March) at no extra cost (£23), I switch my PC on this morning, and it says connected at 2.2mbps!!! Do a test on ZNet BB speed and its just over 2 meg - its so quick!!

well done pipex :thumbs:
