This seems so suspicious doesn't it.. The same ones cropping up time and time again.  Perhaps they employ or select the Judges. :whistle: ;D

I assume these are the industry awards for the worst ISP service provision this year?

I'm not quite sure how it all works but these awards have about as much credibility as a photocopied passport.

They even said Pipex  :lol:

I do wonder how these awards are issed. When Eclipse and Virgin Media are winning things, it just doesn't seem right...

It definitely looks that way. There are, without a doubt, better providers out there than those with awards.

Probably the same ISPs apply each time, IDNet never appears to enter these things. http://www.ispaawards.org.uk/page/rules

And who can blame them, would they really want to be seen listed alongside Pipex?  >:D

Since they blatantly missed of the W why is Tiscali not listed for any as both there Broadband and Customer support are as good as a blocked toilet.
