Default Re: Who is your ISP?

I use a local company where I live. It is only where I live but I cannot use anything but them. I can say though we have had this ISP for 10 this Nov and have only had a problem 2 times, when the service was interrupted.

I also use a local internet service provider. Its the way it is set up here locally while about 9 miles up the road they can use bellsouth and about anything they want. Its a bummmer cause this company we have has no competition so they can basically charge whatever they want and we are stuck.

I use RoadRunner / Time Warner. Very reliable, support is great, Set ups are quick and the techs are helpful.

Again probably not too much use to the original poster, but just to added to the discussion, I'm with Sky Broadband here in the UK. It's very cheap (only £10) a month for no download restrictions and 16mb/s. However, customer service is just terrible. They regularly put my speed down to 2mb/s (I guess it's cheaper for them to offer that when most consumers won't notice), and it takes weeks (and phoneline downtime) for it to go back up again - that's if you get to speak to anyone.

For anyone with a normally 'nice' personality when talking to call-centre staff, I'm afraid I can say that the only way I ever had any luck with Sky was to be very...'stern' with them. But yes, like a previous poster said, I guess you get 'bad ISPs' everywhere, don't you?

Never mind though - it's worth it for the internet

Well the one i'm on is through Orcon it's my sisters broadband line lol, they joined up not long ago but so far it seems to be going very well, as for me i used to use Slingshot which also was a great one i didn't have much problems with them, price wise was good as well.
