Hey everyone,

Have a look at the Entanet resellers (e.g. ADSL24, UKFSN etc.) to see if you could live with their peak/off-peak structure. They offer monthly contracts.

Virgin Media ADSL can be very hit and miss and I think you have to take a 12 month minimum contract.

As you mention gaming I would avoid the following as they generally give you a very slow gaming connection and slow erratic download speeds while having generally next to useless customer support that blindly follows scripts :-

Orange
Pipex
TalkTalk
Sky
Tiscali
Virgin

I would pay a little bit more and get a decent connection as saving a few pounds a month is pointless if you can use it for what you want.

Hope that helps.

Thanks mate, your help is appreciated. Im going to go with Swift Internet, they seem a good company also ive tried to search google for any feedback on them,but cant find any. Which can be either good or a bad thing, im going with with the good option.At least they dont have a website created just for their problems, as Orange does.

This doesn't look good on their web site.

Swift Internet Limited Services
Domain Registration
Our domain registration service is currently unavailable to new customers. Existing customers can access it here.

Web and Email Hosting
Sorry, we no longer offer our web and email hosting products.

Consultancy
We are currently very busy and therefore we are not soliciting for any new work at this time.

Managed Services
We are currently very busy and therefore we are not soliciting for any new work at this time.

Web Sites
We own and operate a number of web sites including footysearch, the popular football web site directory and search engine.

Or have I got the wrong Swift Internet? I can't see any reference to anything useful.
