Just got off the phone to Tiscali.
I have cancelled my account and my MAC code is on it's way.
(Made that bold & underlined to make it more obvious to any Tiscali executive who happens to read this customer feedback.)
ring them tonight for your MAC code they took about 5 day to get me mine, and i had to ring them b**ch at them for it

So what isp should we in the UK be using...
I was on BT till I moved out, never had a problem, now I have virgin and it sucks, net keeps dropping...gotta turn it off and on all the time.
i switched from tiscali to Virgin about 18 months ago, i had 2 problems, both the same and this is how to fix it,
ring your ISP ask for your MAC code(if not with Virgin),
then order you BB online(from Virgin) and go for up to 8mb or what ever you want,
then once it is up and running ring customer service and ask to be put on a Data stream line this will give you a ping of about 30isk, but you will only get a connection speed of 2mb,
i would leave it for a month or so as you might not get a high ping,
but that up to you, like i said before, 18 months on Virgin and only 2 problems both the same and both have been sorted fast by talking to there support ppl who are from and in the UK. but i have to say the second time was my fault cos i want a fast connection for download videos

I think changing ISP is the best option for those who can take it. Lots of people have been experiencing this problem, and I don't want to have to deal with it when there are cheaper and less onerous alternatives.
I'm now waiting for my MAC, and I cited this problem (as well as the ú4/month price difference) as a reason for switching. Tiscali offered to match the lower price, but for their quality of service I don't think it's worthwhile. A smaller, less over-subscribed ISP now suits me better, I think.
just remember to chase them a b****** for your mac code or it will take a week or so to come and that code it only active for 30 days from when you asked for it. also might be worth while asking the ISP you are thinking of moving to do they use Tiscali servers.
