Pipex Broadband

AOL hasn't really been that bad for me over the years, I'm seeing a lot of Bethere recommendations so I might have to research Bethere. Thanks guys.

I think most people on here will tell you to move away from AOL, as its one of the worst companies you can be with for internet.

Is this worth it? Also, does Pipex provide a good internet connection/speed etc?
Cheers.

Can I hear your reasoning behind that comment please?

Do NOT go with Pipex, they are now part of the Tiscali group which has many problems which are never resolved such as slow speeds, bad pings, poor support etc.

Yeah, it's AOL!

What problem is AOL?

To JH,

Well most people on here don't like AOL. They either had bad experiences or just take it from others. Although the only time I used AOL was last year and it was pretty bad. Either way its up to the thread starter.

Thanks for explaining.

I am currently with AOL and have been for about 9 years.

They have cause no problems, the service is always up. Obviously there are times when outages occur but nobody is perfect. Their customer service is fine but the waiting times leave much to be desired.

I don't plan on changing anytime soon :)
