Please answer all 3 questions. Thanx

With Slingshot changing things, Im looking for input to make a more informed decision when I change

(and note, I do realise I missed some major players (like iHug) but I only had 10 options)

555812 2007-06-03 23:33:00 Xnet. Used to use Xtra, but ditched them after they stopped giving me a $30 refund each month for the shoddy service. Xnet is brilliant. Erayd (23)

Only ever had one problem that needed a phone call to their help desk to fix.
They answered the phone straight away and problem was sorted quickly.

555814 2007-06-04 00:45:00 I've been on Xtra for the last dunno how long, and last month finally got sick of the slow speeds, high monthly cost and low cap rate, so I've now switched to Xnet, and I'm really happy with them :) ZeroIndex (12331)
555815 2007-06-04 02:18:00 Xtra for a very long time. I have never had any issues with the speeds, caps or service. I have never needed any technical assistance either. So all up I have nothing to complain about but then I am only a couple of kilometres from the local exchange. andrew93 (249)
555816 2007-06-04 02:53:00 Xtra for a very long time. I have nothing to complain about

It amazes me that so many people still use Xtra. Shows marketing works with the sheeple huh.

They are one of the most expensive ISPs around but still people stick eith them.

I've been with Xnet for nearly a year and they're marvellous.
And CHEAP.

I just love how people say that Xnet is cheap, Xnet maybe cheap if you use less then 10 GB a month (& want a 256K connection), but if you use more then that (or want FS), then they aren’t all that cheap.
