five out of five cats prefer Madasafish
March 13, 2008
We saw a new advert in the UK April edition of Mac Format yesterday. The ad was quite cool and shows Madasafish’s commitment to providing broadband to the Apple mac community.
The ad goes like this:
5 out of 5 cats prefer Fish.
Madasafish has a long tradition of supporting Mac users, including complete support for OS X 10.5 Leopard, as well as all the other big cats as far back as Pums. All of our support technicians are Mac experts, our Online Support Centre is packed with Mac articles and our free wireless router is fully Mac compatible. We won’t charge you a premium either. Madasafish Broadband starts at just £11.99 a month. Visit www.madasafish.com today for broadband with bite but no hidden claws.
Click the thumbnail to see the advert. We have a great £10 OFF broadband deal for Madasafish.

New Apple mac compatible broadband providers added
January 28, 2008
We are please to announce that we are now in the position to increase our mac compatible broadband table from five ADSL providers to ten. We have had more time to research the broadband market and have now added (in no particular order) …
Zen internet, Sky broadband, Demon internet, Plusnet and Be broadband to our table of ‘Apple mac compatible broadband‘ providers. This takes us up to a total of ten providers – which between them – offer around fifty different broadband packages.
For now, we have updated our tables to show you the best broadband products from each of the ISPs and ranked the best products in order of the most popular amongst our visitors. As we find time to write them, you will see all the providers and their respective ADSL products linked off from our table of Apple Mac compatible ADSL providers.
We will be consistently recording and reviewing our consumer data and will keep the top-10 broadband table updated at least twice every month.
As always. If you have any feedback on the Apple friendly providers selected or the products featured then drop us an email to editor [at] macbroadband.co.uk & we’ll follow it up.

Most popular mac broadband ISP
December 6, 2007
We have been running Mac Broadband for about 6 months now. During this time we have been receiving feedback on mac users’ broadband experiences and tracking which broadband companies our readers have been signing-up with.
It is interesting to note that our readers have been voting with their feet.
The first Mac broadband poll
The first Mac broadband survey/poll shows that the following mac compatible ISPs are receiving the most sign-ups from Mac Broadband’s readers are:
- Madasafish Max
- BT Option 1
- Pipex Midi
Notes: chances are that our Madasafish promotion could be skewing results. But, it seems that the two BT owned ISPs (Madasafish and BT broadband) are receiving most of our readers’ attention. We received a lot of interest in Pipex over the summer period – maybe it was the Hoffmeister effect – from Pipex’s then advertising campaign.
As recently reported; Zen internet, Madasafish, Demon internet and BT-owned Plus.net all made it into the Mac User Awards 2007 – so we will be adding their broadband profiles to this website and working up reviews on them over the Christmas period.
