Oh yeah, I'm with ya. I just thought those two deserved a mention as they're both fantastic and not enough people know about them.I didn't look at a list, those few were just from memory..... I am nearly 57, 10 years ago there would have been 200 in my list
I used to be with AAISP until the high monthly price and the low data cap (100MB/month, extendable for a tenner) became too much to bear.
They have a control panel that's second to none though. They ping the line to check it's still up, every single second 24/7 and you have real admin level privileges over your line such as line sensitivity, ADSL type and lots of stuff I only half understand. In fact, by fiddling with what you don't understand, you can take out your line so that you have to meekly call their support line and have them kindly fix the cockup you made.
I never actually did that, but I did trigger a major BT test on my line and exchange once. Oops. They've also got superb reporting and status updates.Their tech support is fantastic too. Real techies man those lines and you don't get any bullshit from them, either. Superb ISP and I really miss that enthusiast-level control panel. I could go on and on and on, that's how good they are.
However, I'm now with Zen on a cheaper service with unlimited data and great customer service. They're not on quite the same techy level as AAISP though, but do give you a solid and reliable service.
If I'm ever feeling rich, I might just go back to AAISP again as I do miss them. Their data cap currently stands at 1TB/month, which isn't bad, but can still be chewed through even on an a 19Mb/s ADSL line like mine. When they improve this offer I'd be more tempted to pay that premium again.
