I need to get a new broadband provider as BT won't switch mine from one phone number to another What are the best packages out there at the moment, It gets used all day long so I need something pretty fast with a large download limit.

Can anyone reccomend me some good providers?

Cheers, James

cancel your old BT one and take out a new BT one? I can't fault their 2mb service to be honest, always on and as fast as it should be.

Might want to try UKOnline though, have heard good things about them

Only reason I asked about AOL is because I can get it cheaper through work.

I have Wanadoo at the mo & its OK but not incredibly fast tbh.

The AOL deal is 2mb unlimited d/l for £19.99 a month
