This is my exchange in westhoughton lancashire

http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange/LCWES

There seems to be only a few LLU looking at that list which are:

LLU operator presence:

AOL:
Enabled
O2 / Be:
Enabled
C&W / Bulldog:
Enabled as of 13/06/2006

So if i want to bypass talktalk in moving ie not require a MAC code
Be would the best of the three LLU operators?
