    Thanks! i have used these before, only problem is that BT will not be connected for another 2 weeks, then i'll have an active telephone number which uswitch requires to search!

    Hope i am not without broadband for too long!

    I think they will talk to you on the phone. Give it a try at:

    0845 601 2856

    I know they will discuss gas and electricity so why not broadband.

    In the past I have recommended Plusnet. I am signing up to broadband when I return from holiday and intend signing with them. I have looked at almost all the suppliers and feel they are as good as most, although others on this group will disagree.

    Before you decide go back to http://adslguide.org.uk and use their 'compare' tool where you can look at various ISPs and compare one with the other.

    :confused:

    Are you sure that you want to sign up with an ISP in bed with Tiscali?

    Do some more reading!

    For price comparisions have a look at the broadband section of uswitch.

    http://www.uswitch.com

    These results are biased though, since the companies listed by uswitch a commission for a sale - so there are many other providers which are recommendable, but refuse to list, since they have to pay £30-40 per signup.... if I remember what I was reading correctly

    they were bought out for a few hundred million earlier this, or last year - so they have to make money somewhere.....

    I've never trusted Uscam.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!
