This is a forum for mobile phones.

Why go with AOL, has to be one of the worst ISP's in the world, covers your system in crap and very hard to remove the software without re-installing office.

I know I used to work for about 9 ISP's a day (Usual helpdesk shit, pretend to be a different company each time the phone rang).

Leave AOL and avoid BT broadband also, they are a con also.

ADSLguide is great

Pipex is pants at support. My line was out of action for over 2 weeks and I never even got a response to my emails asking for support!

If you go with Pipex and need support I suggest a continually looping fax (tape a couple of pages end to end and keep sending it) to their support fax number - that's worked for me before.
