Hi Crankup,

Did you see this story: The "free" Fairy Story by Guy Kewney? I think it's very relevant to the topic.

Kind regards,

I hadnt seen that. It says it all really doesnt it!
And a post thats on-topic!!!

I think that limits are a necessary evil these days, if an ISP can avoid "doing an Evolution" - as long as they are upfront. I think applying limits AND throttling on the sly as well is cheeky.
The Nildram limit is fair.....

Thanks again.

Have you considered Virgin Net? You can sign up with them on a monthly contract and then start your migration after the first months. They pay your connection fee and hav not asked me to pay, when I left them. Its been about 18 months since I have done this, but I think its still an option... just a thought.

Website here

Cancellation charge:: For customers ordering the Service on or after June 7th 2005, Virgin.net reserves the right to charge you a cancellation fee of £50.00 (fifty pounds) if you cancel your Virgin.net Broadband account within 12 months of the date your Broadband Service was activated. Customers who are moving home will be exempt from this cancellation charge, provided that the Service is retained at the customer's new address.
