Internet Access: The Cheapest Way To Dial-up Article Discussion Area

Thanks Alared!

I guess I already suspected that, strange how all the bad reports didn't appear when I checked on google before I paid my cash.

Oh well back to the drawing board! Waited a month for BT to disconnect my Broadband only to find NO access now!

Before I went on BB,I was with Fast4 for dial-up.
These have now been taken over by Breathe,who do a dial-up at £7-99 a month "unlimited".

The cheapest for monthly dial-up is Zaggle,who do an account for £5-99 BUT you are limited to sixty hours a month.

Hope this helps.

Am about to sign up for Zaggle as we're having connection problems with Fast4.
Anyone else noticed that the dial up connection number is the same for both Zaggle & Fast4? Namely 0808 991 6234. Is this a Breathe offshoot too?

alared

Yes Breathe own both zaggle and fast4

Just to mention as an update Fast4.net is now down to £6.99 a month.

anyone know when the fast4 price dropped?

i only noticed whren looking at their site for contact details.. still being charged £8.99, so maybe a backdated refund due..?

I only noticed last week so I dont think it was much before then.

I sent them a message and they changed it to £6.99 from next payment.

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone have any good/bad recent expereince of Fast4.net? I only need it for 4 weeks before my broadband goes live and will be using it primarily for house hunting (visiting RightMove and estate agent sites).

If anyone has some recent experience, I would be grateful.

Many thanks

Mike Lee

I was with F4 dial-up for about four years `til I moved to BBand.
They are now owned by Breathenet who also own Zaggle.
F4 are £6-99 a month unlimited and are as good as any for what you require.
Just make sure you can cancel after a month (I think you need to give a month`s notice,so you would be stuck with them for 2 months)
Wouldn`t 1p a minute dial-up be better for you as it`s only for a month?

All on an 0845 number.

These people quote "Internet access from 1p a minute", so I have no idea what their maximum charge is as this does not seem to be published on their site.:mad:
