Scottish Power, I think.

Wikipedia tells me that Scottish Power (who are part of Iberdrola) established Thus but floated it in 2002.
Blimey.

Ah yes.
My knowledge is dredged up from a looong time ago, from their forums. I think Bulldog was probably an example of a company Thus took over and turned shit.

Another ADSL company to avoid is NewNet, who I migrated to after Demon. They fucked me over badly. Not monetarily, just really shit service, bad support over the phone, the (unfortunate) usual. They even used to monitor their forum for people with problems, and if the problem was because their service was poor (IE not user-end) they would delete the thread. A few days after I joined I found that they had changed the T&C to implement an incredibly strict download limit. They argued that I should have left when I got the letter explaining that (which of course I did not get, because they sent them out before I joined). I got Trading Standards involved and they helped (by which I mean they bitch slapped them all over the shop until they gave in).


WORDS!
