Net-easy broadband connection

Hello all,
Have you ever heard about Net-easy ( http://www.net-easy.co.uk/broadband.php ). A friend of mine would like to change his current ISP which is BT to another one. I found this company and it looks very good. It's got 5:1 contention ratio, it's very low comparing to other ISPs, additionally up to 24mbit/s and unlimited usage for only 26 pounds ? Isn't it to good to be true ? Unfortunately I found no opinion about them on this forum. Does anyone use their services ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Hmm, too late to look them up at company house tonight and I only found a single hit on google (how did you find them BTW?), so I'll check the gazettes

Hmm, two months old, perhaps that explains the lack of links :D

Looks like "The registrant is a non-trading individual who has opted to have their address omitted from the WHOIS service."

I wonder if they'll sort their whois entry out before one of our forum members takes care of it for them :D I'm off to bed, any volunteers?

Sounds too good to be true.

I also see its got 'Best consumer ISP 2004'. Considering biscit were a nominee this year, that doesnt say much.

I do however like their website, very nice and simple, unlike many many other ISPs.

Their hosting seems equally too good to be true.

Edit: Mel, what do you mean by 2 months old? The company is 2 months old, or something has just been registered within 2 months?

Oh, and I cant find a thing about them on the net either. Which is odd, as they have been around since 1996....

I found them when I was looking for ISPs with the lowest contention ratio possible for the lowest price on google :) It's weird that their website says they were established on 1996 and you've found out that they are 2 months old ?
But maybe it's worth to try, there's no cotract and you can cancel any time.
 
No contract?

That should send up warning signals....
Maybe they mean they are a rolling one month contract...
Which means to just have to give one months notice to move...
 
Sounds too good to be true.

Maybe they mean their parent company or a company they are a reseller of :shrug:

Can anyone make out whose awards they've won, they look too fuzzy too me.
I couldn't find any details of their broadband T&Cs or the required Ofcom approved Complaint code of practice :shrug:

To me they look like a new re-seller of Tiscali and also the awards are to blurred to make out to me looks like anther unlimited-dsl.
 
Do tiscali offer ADSL2 now?

from the FAQ http://www.net-easy.co.uk/faq.php Will I really receive 24MB Broadband Internet?


"If the quality of the copper is perfect, and there is no line noise, you will receive full 24MB up to a kilometer from the exchange. "

So that's basically no-one then, uness they live in the exchange.


No mention of needing an LLUed exchange.
 
Seems *unreal* to me.

Wonder how many will get that one...

Ive sent various emails out, to see if this ISP is actually real or not. Ive spotted 'new ISPs' before where it just didnt add up, and people got done by them, so I think a bit of effort wouldnt go amiss this time.

Oh, and interestingly, net easy do not seem to be members of the ISPA. Do you have to be to be nominated?

You dont need to be nominated, you just need to hand over £500, they take anyone and it means nothing, don't have to have been going for a while, no backgroung checks, just hand over the cash, job done!
