In answer to you second question, if you're interested in binary newsgroups,
then PlusNets newsfeed is abysmal. (At least it still was when I last
checked about 7 days ago).

There have been many posts / threads on this subject in this group and
others, and also in several forums.

PlusNet keep saying that they are going to resolve this situation but
nothing seems forthcoming.

The last reply I saw on this matter (just over 1 week ago) from a member of
PlusNet Support was:

"At this stage it is difficult to give a firm eta but please be assured that
we are taking the problem seriously and our engineers are working to resolve
the issue. I realise this is not providing the information you require but
as soon as there are any further developments, you will be informed."

Here are some links to a few threads on this subject on the PlusNet forum on
http://www.adslguide.org.uk/

I hope this is useful to you, it was to me!
