    Just a quick survey to see who's with who and what you think of the package you signed up to. I'm limiting the providers to those who offer dial-up national coverage so no NTL etc.

    So please vote and then give your views....

    Have been using IOL Anytime for a few months now, overall I'm pretty happy with it. It does have the occasional problem but it's no big deal.
    As soon as DSL is available on my exchange I'm gone though :)

    UTVip (lite) for me. As previously posted I had lots of connections problems but they seem to be sorted for me now. Connect first time every time (nearly) and 46/47K. Happy so far.

    I better give my own views!

    I'm with UTV as they were the first and they're the cheapest but I have to say the quality of service has slipped as the numbers using it has grown. Hopefully this is a period of adjustment and they'll have me connected first time everytime (!) soon....

    UTV, and no complaints about the service. Having to roll over occasionally, but it's great to at least have a rollover capability.

    Rollover doesn't work for some ISDN people, and the service and quality is pants.

    I'm with UTVip Lite, been with them since they where dna. Seen a few ups and downs but generally a very good service. Had a problem last month while they where upgrading (messing) with there service - after talking with support resolved this be disabling v92 protocol - v90 working fine. Skywalker - ye might try that as a test but contact support they are very good.

    anytime is great, but they have cache issues (i think), an ever increasing number of pages don't load unless you try loading them with a proxy, like www.theregister.co.uk for me anyway
    :/
