Having stuck with Virgin.net through thick and thin since its inception,
I've finally had enough, and I'm looking at IDnet. It seems too good to be
true. Can anyone quote from experience?

Regards and thanks in advance

I'll let you know after tomorrow, when my ADSL is switching
from virgin.net to idnet. So far everything has gone smoothly.

Not much experience, given that I've been with them barely a week -
but - there were some problems at the BT exchange with my connection
and IDNet's technical support over the phone was detailed and
efficient.
Since then I've had no problems at all and a stable connection ( so
far! ). I'm on the Home Lite package.

Regards,

Bloody excellent they are ! I've been with them for about a year now and the
performance is superb. They actually deliver what others only promise. First
class technical backup too. They have the highest 'score' on thinkbroadband.com
too.

If you're interested, and like my recommendation, we can both benefit to the
tune of £10 for an 'introduction'. Please contact me on my posted email address.

A fraction slow right now. I usually get ~ 7000 kbps.

It'll be good to have your input too. I rather imagine you're going to be very
happy.

4/5, pretty good.
on http://www.dslzoneuk.net they come 7th, just below fast.co.uk and most of
the entanet resellers. still highly commendable, that 30gb/month for £25
would stuff me though, i usually more than double that - for less money!
any fup in operation?

I'm on Be* and very happy, but just had cause to ring Virgin Media and after
finally getting through after 15 mins to talk to someone, they apolgised for
the wait as they have a national broadband outage - seems to be quite a lot
of outages from what I've seen on the status page
Oh, and they really are clueless idiots

Sure, they're not the cheapest and they don't claim to be, although, pro-rata
compared to another top *commercial* ISP, Zen, they are more competitive.
Neither position themselves primarily as consumer ISPs and it shows in many
ways.

Although I'm a regular user, I've been catered for nicely by the 5GB included on
the 'Home Lite' package.

Yes, it seems entanet has a good name too.

I'm tying to recall what the 'f' in fup means. Anyway, there's NO throttling,
port blocking, traffic shaping, you name it with Idnet. Just a nice fast
responsive connection with good peering.
