We've used cogent for the past year, 100 over GigE.

 - Clueful and responsive tech support.
 - Active monitoring of faults.
 - Helpful people at billing (even when trying to give them
   less money).

We were affected by one depeering during the last year (Telia). We're
multihomed and that mitigated the problem. Obviously, you'd never want
to go exclusively with them.

Cheers,
