asterisk users - Oct 2005 - OT: Suggestions for E1 Service in the UK

We are looking to acquire E1 service in Fleet right outside of London. I am
in the States so I am not aware of the key players. We currently get ADSL
from Eclipse but were interested in a quote for E1.

What is a typical E1 line go for nowadays and who can I get it from?

Thanks,
Geoff

Affiniti (Kingston Communication) is another choice. Their min channel
number is 6, and their pricing is more reasonable than BT. Dont have
exact prices to hand, but they are better. They are also a far easier
company to deal with than BT, who I have had no end of problems with.
