Be There - Any User Feedback?

Hello,

I'm considering changing ISP to Be There, www.bethere.co.uk which
looks like a reasonable LLU offer.

There's not much feedback on their performance here or in
www.adslguide.org.uk , apart from the usual difficulty of MAC release
or ceasing ADSL on an LLU'd line.

Has anyone any actual experience of the reliability of their service?

I switched from Orange to BE*
Had to cancel the Orange service, wait for the line to clear before I
cud sign up.
Took 6 days from order to actually bein switched on.
Synchin at 1,313/17,963 so max downloads of around 14-15MB.
When I was with Orange I was on around 7MB, which suddenly dropped to
about 2MB, which is why I dumped them.

BE* is very reliable so far, I just wouldn't recommend takin up their
offer of Email/Webspace, as they won't let you host certain files like
..wav .mp3 .mpg etc...
(they don't tell you this though, until after you give em your money)
I wouldn't use an ISP for main email anyway, just the webspace I wanted.

Gonz,

Thank you for the note, I'm dumping Plusnet (they really are crap) and
will also have to wait for the markers to be removed from my line
before it's clear and I can register for BE.

Any other feedback out there?

David
