Bulldog to offer 4MB service for £30/month

in Central London...

See http://www.bulldogdsl.com/bulldog4/ for details and yes, this is a "all
the time" service - not just off peak only.

Also, as a sign of their recent takeover by C&W and the announcment that
will be expanding their LLU service from the current 38 exchanges to 200
odd.. the FAQ includes:

---
What are Bulldog's plans for rolling out Bulldog 4 beyond Central London?

Over the next few months we will launch the service in a number of cities
across the UK. We will publish details as we go.
---

It is also their view that "most" (not all) lines will work at 4MB -
obviously they are using different dB/SNR limits to BT

If you/anyone does decide to use Bulldog would you mind quoting my referral
code when signing up - just quote "bdol 87431" when signing up online (under
"How did you hear about Bulldog?/Referred by a Friend") or by telephone.

Regards
Sunil

It's very tempting! I am very happy with PlusNet and they have
excellent customer service...they don't treat their customers like
mushrooms (keeping them in the dark and feeding them bullsh&t).

If 'dog were just as good, I'd move.

Cheers,

Guy

Having no experience of Plusnet's service..

I would say Bulldog's customer service is unlikely to be as "polished" as
Plusnet's - i.e. you have a longer wait for tech support on the telephone
and Bulldog could be more proactive in a few other areas - that Plusnet seem
to do well in.

However, Bulldog's LLU service (i.e. the one in Central London) is *very*
good - they have virtually no complaints about it and these products have
"virtually no contention" - in fact they even use that phrase now - rather
then pretending their LLU products have a maximum 40:1 contention..*

I guess there are advantages to running their own DSLAMs and being brought
by Cable and Wireless...

(*of course their products which are not on LLU exchanges are still
contended though)

Any Idea if this can be used for business usage?

You would have to ask Bulldog directly - though I think this offer is aimed
at
residential users.

Bulldog have seperate packages aimed at businesses at

And disadvantages.
They could have been someone, been a contender.
