BT is the biggest sinner of all when it comes to inflexibility and lack of customer support. Gripes for me include rubbish modem, no Mac OSX support (for months), no chance to switch to a fixed IP without cancelling my contract and moving to a business package. Since I came onto their (then) monopoly ADSL over 2 years ago I have seen the Ts & Cs change to include a bandwidth regulatory statement stating that over 1GB per day and they can cut me off. Their customer support is a joke and they are no longer competitive either.Also , why are they so scared of people doing 'home hosting' from fixed IPs? We all want to broadcast stuff from time to time - that's why we pay for the connection. Oh if only 802.11g was useable (sigh)
