So yeah changing again because:

"Your cabinet is planned to have WBC FTTC by 30th June 2011. Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 36.9Mbps and upstream line speed of 8.2Mbps."

Don't know which ISP to go with, choice will come down to AAISP or Zen. None of the rest of the ISP's offer the traffic bandwidth options I want.

BE still havn't gotten around to jumping on the Infinity bandwagon, and their starting to loose customers because of it.  Twice the down speed, a huge boost in up speed at about the same price?  No brainer really.

How can BT be charging £307.20 total for the first year for "unlimited/unlimited" and Titan charge £1,729.87 for the same thing?  Some of these companies need their heads examined.

Zen are charging £1,026.00 with a 500GB limit ffs...  8O
