Story: BTopenworld, NTL top complaints charts

I have a simple complaint about NTL broadband - it doesn't actually work! I've had their broadband for a couple of years now, and at first the performance was pretty good, but lately it has been getting slower and slower, to the point where it is totally unusable.

For the last three weeks it has been taking up to 10 minutes to load a single web page. Any web page. And this on a supposedly 2Mb connection. In fact I doubt I'm getting more than 1-2Kb out of it.

Of course attempts to report this via their 'customer services' site have been completely ignored. I was just on the point of moving to BT, but having read this site I'm at a loss to know where to move to. I doubt anywhere could be worse than NTL.

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
