I have just had a look this is a link to what I am on,

OAP - thanks for that. The ISP appears to be solid but the initial fees ie modem and setup are £60+! That commitment kinda makes me shy away. Then, of course, you've got to add the £12.95 monthly fee. Good the contract is monthly - shows confidence in the product!

As migration is free, it may be best to go to NewNet if a 1st/2nd choice fails or is that false economy?

Luck of the draw!

as bad as v21/fast4/biscit dial up is/was (it's been quite good of late - since new year) it's alright for free!!!

i haven't been charged since november!?!?!

Hi, well as you know we did not have a mac code, so I had to pay a new bt connection fee of £35.25 and my first months broadband £12.95 which equals £48.20 that is what it cost me. They had the connection fee on special offer, maybe if you are interested, and you explain who you are with they may be helpful??!! I already had my V21 Modem which I got free, however,I lost the £47 V21 charged me for bt connection, so I do not owe them anything!!

Hope you soon get sorted, regards oap (ps at least monthly if you do not like it you can change) they told me you get a mac code and there is no charge for moving on if you want to.

Sorry I don`t but I`m sure some kind soul will give you the link.

You could try this one but I don`t know if it`s for speed or the amount of usage:

Or if you want to get serious, I found this.

It does cost and I can't vouch for it, but it looks the biz!
