To AOL or not?

LittleJo

Hi,
I have finally lost patience with AOL, there is only so much you can take.
We download about 4G per month between us.
I have a leaning to Plus Net, and have looked at the recent thread.
Any suggestions?

O2 Broadband

Worst ISP decision I ever made was choosing AOL couple of years ago ...best decision I ever made was leaving them!

Or alternatively BeUnlimited

Jaffa.

I have no problems with AOL, infact their internet service for me has been about 98% up - and I get it for £6.99 a month

Actually, I did go with BeUnlimited originally then when I discovered that O2 had bought Be I transferred to them and saved myself a tenner a month without losing any speed or anything. When I do the speedtest thing at speedtest.net my results still show as BeThere.co.uk.

I hate AOL, their updates never worked for us and the final straw was they disconnected us saying my dad had canceled when in fact he had just changed the bank account that the payments were coming out of. Now we're with BT where my dad gets his mobile included and I have to say we're a hell of a lot happier!

Jaffa.

AOL do delver a good speed. Though we did have to nag them to get that...

I can remember when I phoned up AOL to ask for my MAC, one of the nonsense comments they gave me was that my line would never give more than 6mb download speeds! :rolleyes:

Hi,
Many thanks to all to took the time to respond, it is good to get a wider view.
The comments though have made me think a bit more wider and I will look into more providers.
I will need a new router however, which is more relaible and faster, wireless or ethernet (plugs ino the USB . I think I mean??
We only have one PC.
