What's wrong with Demon. They have no limits and I just got back from
vacation to find I have been upgraded to 8Megs.

easynet = ukonline = skybroadband, hence you can get upto 22mb (UKO =
£30/month) or upto16mb (Sky = extra £10/month on to of sub), in the case of
UKO now, and sky probably before Christmas

If you are now on ADSL max with demon you are now subject to a
(extremely vague and undefined) fair usage policy.

Demon have always had a fair usage policy, it's just that it gets
mentioned a bit more now. To quote Demon's FAQ:-

"This will only affect customers continuously downloading large volumes
of data, which we estimate is less than 1% of our customer base."

and

"Will I be affected by the Fair Usage Policy?
The Fair Usage Policy will only affect very heavy users.

* Customers that use their connection for email and web browsing for 8
hours every day would not be affected.
* Gamers would not be affected – even if they played for several hours
every day.
* Customers that download reasonably large amounts of music and video
would not be affected. For example, a thousand music tracks and five
films every month would not be considered unfair usage."

Even if I was to work from home 5 days a week, I doubt I would bust
these restrictions.

Demon might not be the cheapest, but ask PlusNet users about quality of
service.
