What an odd, ill-informed comment!
Metronet doesn't exist any more, it was bought out by PlusNet some years ago.
Entanet is a "white-label" wholesale ISP, you can only get its services via a reseller. It's perfectly fine and, like all the others I've used, on my exchange it uses BT wholesale for its backhaul.
Merula is my current ISP and has been absolutely fine - I get something like 72Mbps no matter whether it's day or night, not least because I'm not contending with many other users at the exchange. It also makes "elevated best efforts" available, which increases your traffic priority on BT's network.
I'll be moving to a fibre-on-demand connection with Cerberus soon - they also use BT's backhaul and, unlike larger ISPs, also give access to the whole of the Web. Yes, including the bits that BT retail (as opposed to wholesale), Sky, TalkTalk and the rest block.
