I haven't a clue I'm afraid, but it would be a damn good idea to do a campaign like that over here :D
What little problems you may have, they will patiently sort out on their Free Phone line, or send a detailed e-mail.
If anyone knows of a provider that can guarantee a constant speed, and no disconnections, then please do us all a favour and Post their name here.
Incidentally, AOL offer a lot of extras, and are probably one of the more secure ones against viruses etc...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!EIGHTYTWOPOINT6
AOL Customer Service is possibly the worst I have ever encountered. They are extremely incompetent, screw up like nobody else and have some of the rudest/dumbest advisors on the planet! The onl yperson to say good things about AOL would be an employee of theirs...
*looks accusingly in CH's direction*

BT, Pipex, Bulldog - I know off-hand, I've also heard good things about the other, smaller providers (I forget names). The only ones to have regular disconnections were Freeserve and AOL - Why do you think they created the auto-redialler? If they didn't have a serious disconnection problem, there would be no need for such a tool.

AOL secure against virii? Me laugh, muchly. I swear, hand on heart (or as close to it as possible), I had the most problems, the most virii and the most re-installs of my life during my time with AOL. Their protection systems are useless, as are the company.
Some people like them though, and I can't for the life in me, understand why...
