I've been pestering my dad to switch from AOL broadband for many years, and after the many problems we've had on the billing side of things and subsequent rubbish customer service he is finally considering changing. However, he will only change if the customer service is half decent (and the price is right). I would also prefer it if the internet didn't drop out completely at least once every couple of days, requiring a router reset.
After some googling and browsing this subforum, pretty much every single review of all the options which are available according to samknows says that the customer service is dreadful. Could anyone give any recommendations as to what is the best/worst out of the available ISPs for customer service and connection reliability?
Once I know which ISP to go for, unless there is a particular package to avoid, I'm perfectly fine with choosing the package that suits me best so don't worry about recommending specific packages. The only ISP I will flat out refuse to go with is Virgin, because they were utterly dreadful in every single way possible for the two years I used them at uni
Extra info that you guys might need. Let me know if you need anything else:

I'm assuming that BT FTTC is what BT Infinity uses, because when we phoned them asking about an offer they gave us (which turned out to be rubbish), they suggested that we move to the top end BT Infinity package
