I might go with them just on the strength of their website.    I just looked at http://www.aa.net.uk/broadband.html and found them talking about ADSL1, ADSL2+, FTTC, FTTP,  LLU and BT back-haul.  What a breath of fresh air!

Speaking as a satisfied customer, you could do a lot worse. Also, their support staff have clues, rather than scripts, and their support-over-irc is pretty decent.

I'm with them. No issues. You can configure pretty much everything from their web systems. Only drawback IMHO: support during office hours only. 

Not that I've ever actually needed it...

oh- and price: they were not cheap last I checked. 

But they remain the only ISP that ever picked the phone (a long time ago) to enquire if all was well when I was doing some work in the house, and the line kept going up and down.

Where is the usage policy of #london.pm IRC channel.

At least two people got kicked today, one for what has been traditional banter for the last ten years, and another for questioning that kick.

Without agreed guidelines this is arbitrary.

Is this what we do these days?

We don't have one.  We should have one.  And not just for irc, but for the mailing lists and for real live events.  Here, let me write one (or at least steal one.)

Here's the nutshell version, stolen from Tim O'Reilly, which was stolen from Flickr.

   Don?t be creepy. You know the guy. Don't be that guy.

Here's my longer drawn out version, stolen from YAPC::NA's code of conduct.  Comments on this are genuinely welcome, and I'll leave it to the current London.pm leader to make a call on what exactly we should adopt (if anything)

Code of Conduct

1. Purpose

London.pm believes our community should be truly open for everyone. As such, we are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, religion, preferred operating system, programming language, or text editor.

This code of conduct outlines our expectations for participant behavior as well as the consequences for unacceptable behavior.

We invite all posters to the mailing list, members of the irc channels, event attendees, London.pm t-shirt wearers and other participants in the London.pm community to help us realise a safe and positive experience for everyone.

2. Expected Behavior

Be considerate, respectful, and collaborative.

Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory or harassing behavior, speech, and electronic communication. Be aware that what may be mild banter to you might be perceived as demeaning, discriminatory or harassing behavior to other members or potential members of the wider London.pm community.

Be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants. Alert the London.pm leaders (part or present,) or event organisers if you notice a dangerous situation or someone in distress.

Participate in an authentic and active way. In doing so, you help to improve the London.pm community.

3. Unacceptable Behavior

Unacceptable behaviors include: intimidating, harassing, abusive, discriminatory, derogatory or demeaning conduct on the mailing lists, irc channels and while attending London.pm events and related events. Be aware London.pm venues may be shared with members of the public; please be respectful to all patrons of these locations. Be aware that electronic communications are effectively archived forever and are accessible to the public and therefore become the "public face" of London.pm.

Harassment includes: offensive verbal comments related to gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, disability; inappropriate use of nudity and/or sexual images in public spaces (including presentation slides); deliberate intimidation, stalking or following; harassing photography or recording; sustained disruption of talks or other events; inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

4. Consequences of Unacceptable Behavior

Unacceptable behavior will not be tolerated by anyone associated with the London.pm community.

Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately.
If a participant engages in unacceptable behavior, the London.pm leaders (past and present,) event organisers, or any person delegated responsibility by the aforementioned may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including permanent expulsion from the event, mailing list or irc channel.

5. What to do if you witness or are subject to unacceptable behavior

If you are subject to unacceptable behavior, notice that someone else is being subject to unacceptable behavior, or have any other concerns, please notify a London.pm leader (past or present,) event organiser, or any person delegated to handle this task by the aforementioned as soon as possible.

These people will be available to help participants contact law enforcement, and in the case of in-person events contact venue security, to provide escorts, or to otherwise assist those experiencing unacceptable behavior to feel safe for the duration of the event.

Members of the London.pm community are encouraged to bring these matters to the attention of the London.pm leaders, event organisers, and delegated representatives rather then dealing with issues solely themselves so matters can be dealt with properly in a manner that does not expose those members to accusations of personal vendettas. Issues of harassment are important, and as such we are keen that issues are seen to be dealt with at a community wide level.

6. Scope

We expect all people participating in the London.pm community, be it in person or through electronic communication, to abide by this code of conduct whenever they participate in the London.pm community.

7. Contact info

+1

Other than:

"London.pm leaders (part or present,)" should be "London.pm leaders (past or present)"

Again up to current leader - as London.pm is not and never has been a democracy.

Also, the spelling of "behaviour" needs to be fixed throughout.

Otherwise, it would definitely get my vote. If we were voting. Which we're not.
