They fucked me right about.
was a £17.99 package and one month their website wouldnt let me view my bill and they took over £50 from my account and they woldnt tell me why. I got it back after lots of arguing!

Orange :S
Mistake IMO using such a powerful brand name, if it screws up (as it seems to consistently do so) it could really hurt Oranges name :S

Good point Robbo, but then again if it works the brand name will most likely attract new customers who are familiar with orange.
A double edged sword indeed.

There is alot of IT people on this fourm Sig so we do care as its good to know whats going on in the IT world.
And im sure at some point when you ask about who is the BEST BB ISP you will require this information.

Crazy! Could work out well if they intergrate your BB and mobile bill all in one. I'm quite fond of Orange, used there mobile network for over 4 years and it was great.
I was gonna leave Wanadoo for a faster connection but since it's orange going take over -- i think i'll stay.
My intenet goes off every so often. I've put it down to ZoneAlarm for now as i've changed to the windows firewall and i haven't had any probs. It's something to do with the router and ZA as it will go off on my laptop too.

I have been with wanadoo/freeserve since I first got the internet 1997 ish.
I dont think I have ever had a broad band problem. Had BB since 2002.
Great company.

I've never had a problem with Wanadoo, I think that's down to not actually having used them!

Wanadoo is a crap name anyway. Like CIF and Maoam. Damn European branding.
