    indeed i did... though now it will not work for me either, which is strange... i had previously seen the maintainance page before, so my computer ws not working offline, or working from temp internet files... maybe they were testing an upgrade?

    Just got off the phone to Fast 4 and can confirm that Fast 4 have no customers left!!! All customers that were with Fast 4 before the change over to Biscit have moved to V21.

    Fast 4 is now a brand new ISP with no customers at the moment and will be setting up new BB/Dial up packages in the next few days which I've been told will be the cheapest in the UK.

    HTH


    That seems like a strange way to have customers. Why get rid of all your customers and then seek new ones? Way beyond my understanding! :confused:

    This package is no longer availble at £11-99 from V21/Biscit.

    Hi Alared, well you are right, I am surprised, I have phoned both V21 helpline and their sales line. No they said, the package now is with phone at £19.99 per month, oh dear I asked if they are going to charge me more, which I would not pay, no they said, we will honour the contract you made at £11.99 so I am very relieved and chuffed and seem to have a good deal. We did not want a phone line tied to our broadband in any case. We use 1899.

    I sent an enquiry again to them re changing my default, did not know how to do it, it wanted Fast 4, and straight away came a reply telling me how to do it, so impressed so far!!!

    Cheers, oap

    looks like it is still available here... http://www.v21.co.uk/broadband/home-8mb.asp .... I think the sales staff would have been told to sell the package with the line rental instead

    Well yes, I thought that too, that is why I phoned, since my last post I have looked again and it seems it is still there as it says existing customers whichyou all are upgrade here, but it tells me I am already there, so cannot go any further, so its worth a try if anyone is interested, by the way Alared I have changed to direct debit, thanks for that. Cheers oap
