Has anyone used / using Help the Aged Broadband ??

It is aimed for 'older' people and gurantee to have someone on the end of the phone who will speak your language i.e layman's terms.

My dad wants to sign up, but I want to find out if anyone has any opinion good or bad on them ?

Thanks in advance

    I wouldn't touch them. The site isn't overly impressive. "Download your guide" doesn't have a file to download :s

    I can't see who's services they are re-selling.

    The T&C's aren't great (and can't be seen until confirming the order) - you have to pay the activation/migration fee; the packages aren't that competitive; there is a cancellation fee they reserve the right to charge (no minimum period defined) of £44.99.

    And they can't even decide the length of notice required:-
    Either We or You may terminate the Contract at any time by giving at least [twenty eight (28)] [30?] days' written notice to the other
