1MB + Connection

    Have been with Pipex on their £23.99 deal for a 1 Mb pipe (uncapped usage) for some time with no problems and very good speeds. Ref the phone calls offer, I currently use Primus and 1899/18185 for all of my calls.

    Incorperating the Pipex phone offer to bring the cost down to £17.99 looks interesting, but it would depend on your phone usage as to if it was worthwhile or not. Offer covers local and national calls only. What about mobiles, international, 0845/0870 etc? Could use an alternative supplier for those calls (1899 or 18185?) but check the small print (if there is any) over what Pipex may require from you (minimum usage) to get the free calls.
