Did you purchase the domain through them? All you need to do is request either A and MX record changes for said domain (to point to google for example and use Googles free business mail option) Or request a registrar change (may be harder to do if when you bough the domain you agreed to no registrar swap)
Change the domain registrar to someone else, like godaddy or whatever, then you can specify your own A / MX (DNS records) To point to wherever meaning its ISP independent.
You can have as many ISP's at your house as you line, you just need to pay for a telephone line for each. In the case of virgin since they use their own network and don't use BT. You can technically have Eclipse Fibre (i suspect its using BT's FTTC Scheme?) Rather than their own LLU Fibre scheme... and Virgin. So yes you can have both.
Hopefully thats answered your queries.
The address isn't Eclipse, just who they wanted to put us with for fibre.
We've had the domain since we had our first PC, which at the time was a brand new Win95 machine so gives you an idea of how old it is haha!
Will get on the phone to them and see what they say, can see us not staying with them for long as they're bloody pricey for a crap connection and we know what they want for fibre...
May be pestering you again Fooby! :p
EDIT: We never purchased the domain, it's just what the company was called to start with, so was webleicester but has been taken over by K-com. They don't want us to have the e-mail address moved anywhere so not sure what to do.
