Well I am with BT Dial-up It costs me a flat rate £16 a month and it's for unlimited access to Email and internet. Given that I do not download music, books, movies, pictures, Games, dial-up meets my needs. I just wish BT could address the problem I have right now. When I try to download a news paper from Talking papers, The BT server will stop sending the data if the email Is long. This problem has only started In past few weeks. So if say The Guardian was 400kb the download stops when it gets to About 350kb Anyone any idea why this may happen.

I am now with TalkTalk and pay, on average £20 a month for broadband, free UK landline calls (including 0845 and 0870 numbers). I would never wish to return to broadband.

Anyway, I am having a problem that when I try to Download mail it keeps stopping too soon. BT says and I quote: "You are under absolutely no pressure to have broadband from BT. Moving to another provider for your line wont take away these issues-it's all the same network which, is owned by BT Openreach." Is BT correct to suggest that being cut of from a servier, Would still happen no matter which ISP I am with.
