Nothing could get *much* worse than the service I'm currently getting from
B.T. at the moment IMHO... when I can get a connection, I swear B.T. are
throttling the throughout as well - I have not achieved greater that 3.5 -
4K/sec download speeds since going on to the new number... I'm sure I
regularly got 5 - 6K/sec on the old one... Add to that the fact that it
just
WILL NOT stay connected any more - on the old number I used connect when I
got home from work, and it would still be connected when I went to bed...
(in fact occasionally I used to leave it connected overnight, and on those
occasions it would usually still be connected the following morning). These
days, try as I might, I can't get it to stay online for more than 30 mins
at
a time...

B.T. can kiss my arse goodbye!
