Blueyonder

Sally · 27th April 2004

I have been using Blueyonder for a number of years now and wondered what everyone thought of their service.
I've not had to much bother with them and their 24/hr support is impicable. And now with pay online options it makes it so much easier and user friendly.

Just recieved an email this morning from my ISP that our packages are being upgraded for free.
My package will now be - The 50% speed increase applies to downstream bandwidth speeds only. Upstream bandwidth speeds will remain at current levels -
128k for 512k service & 256k for other services, but upload speeds will rise from 512k to 725k

Not bad for £25 a month

I've heard they are normally quite good.. also heard NTL are doing something similar (50% free or something like that).

Blueyonders the best domestic cable internet provider I've used that's for sure.

Very little downtime over the years.

Good plan, hadn't thought of that!

So who do you recommend to people looking for a good ISP?

When i was in Edinburgh i had a Telewest connection 8mb iirc and loved it. I had some issues with it but every time i had problems i was on the phone and managed to get part of and sometimes all of my bill refunded.

I have now moved to an area when not only can i not get Telewest but i can not get any cable connection at all.

when i called telewest last month to complain of 80% packet loss... i was told to clear my cookies and restart internet explorer... great customer service? i don't bloody think so... the woman also hung up on me when i asked to speak to someone who knew what a computer was

I know where you coming from, Blueyonder provide a great service when it just works, we've been likely with this so far I guess.

The only home ISP I've used that had both a good service and a good support team are Zen Internet (ADSL) , I use these guys for my backup net connection at home, just incase the primary goes down
