    I think that is a good idea. Plagarism is not a good thing, only suitable for the lazy idle buggers that should never be doing a course anyway.

    I'm with Sky and the speed is chronic, although it's a reliable service. Guess it depends exactly where in Dodworth you live. I'm at the Gilroyd end and I'm told that the distance from the exchange limits the speed.

    Isnt Doderth on Cable then, thats fastest and most reliable Ive ever had . If your within cable distance, for me its a no brainer as far as Internet goes. TV is rubbish and a phone is a phone. Arnt BT putting there call & line rentals up soon ?

    Virginmedia 20Mbps service - very good

    I get an average of 15Mbps download, about 1.8Mbps upload. I can get their 50Mbps service if I want but not sure I warrant it to pay the extra tbh

    I'm in Swindon but I believe that Virginmedia is available in Barnsley (or at least parts of it).

    I've been with NTL/Virginmedia for about 12 years and I have to say I have had good, reliable service - tech support improved when Virginmedia took over but I'm in IT so don't usually need it.
