I'm from Italy, a random ISP called MC-Link (which is a business internet provider, so a good one in theory), I have the exact same issues.

Is SE releated, 3 different providers all with the same issue there is something wrong, definitely not a provider-specific issue.
It is provider specific. Only certain providers in each country are being affected. In the UK, it's just Sky. In Italy, MC-Link (and any other unreported ones). In the US, it's only certain providers. Same goes for any players in other countries having the issue.

Take the UK for example. No other player on any other ISP other than Sky is being affected. I know a bunch of people on different ISP's that haven't had a single issue.

Now this doesn't mean the problem lies purely with the ISPs. The problem is occurring with the route that your data takes to get from your ISP to the game servers. The best way for this to get fixed is for both Square-Enix AND the service providers to acknowledge the problem and communicate with each other to produce a solution.
