New Broadband ISP User

Hi there I'd like to congratulate Pipex on making my new broadband experience the most seamless and painfree experience of any ISP I have ever used - having used the 'net since 1996 I can assure you I have used many ISP's beforehand from the good (Surf Any Time) to the average (BT, GlobalNet, Mad As A Fish) and to the downright crap (JJTek Online, UK Online). Well done guys I'm a convert to the ADSL cause having lambasted my brother who got a 1MBit line installed with NDO a year ago... I told him a 180 ping on Battlefield 1942 was enough for me :laugh: how bloody wrong I was... now kicking butts at 24 ping :D
 
I've always found Pipex to be very good. I've now been with them almost a year and am just upgrading to 1MB. The thing is that their 1MB isn't that competitively priced, in so much as I can easily find it up to 10 quid cheaper elsewhere.

Does the old adage you get what you pay for ring true for ADSL?

Although i'd be very happy to stay with Pipex, i'm seriously considering V21 or Metronet but kind of see it as the difference between British Airways and Easy Jet. One's more expensive but you know it's more likely to get you there on time, comfortable and relaxed, thus worth every extra penny if you can afford it - know what I mean?
 
how long did you have to wait for your lines to be enabled once you got an activition date?
As my activition date was 4 days ago on the Tuesday 28th and i'm still not enabled. However I'm one of those people who had to wait for the new adsl limits to come out but still. :(

oh i knew there was something i forgot to do :).
Yeah i meant to tell you all that i was enabled on my activition date after all, and it was just the surge protector that i had my phone line plugged in to that was stopping me from using BB.
