Morning,

I've just given up the fight with the lovely Talktalk re my broadband not working, but really need to find a free dial-up connection to use in the meantime whilst waiting to swap back to BT
I've googled and found a couple but am reluctant to use something I've never even heard of.

So, can anyone actually recommend a free dial-up access please or have you even heard of adial.co.uk or connect4free.co.uk?

Any help appreciated. Thanks

Hi Peggy

I recently changed from Telewest to TalkTalk (please don't tell me I've made a mistake - I KNOW so already)
Anyway was without broadband for couple of months and I found a cheap and good alternative to BT etc dial up. My Internet Pass. (http://www.mipcards.com/). You buy a prepaid card for £10 basically works out at around half a p per minute. You can get cards from some post offices and shops or buy online.

Just to let you all know that as Biscit/V21 was down again yesterday !!!. I used the geoisp number with 1899 for about 2.5 hours. Just checked my 1899 phone bill today and yes it shows as only the 4p connection charge.
It is a bit slow but useful as a backup and is cheap as well.

Thanks OP.

My Biscit/v21 broadband ceased last night and I have used the geoisp number with 1899 twice today, 1.25 hours this morning and now. No connection difficulties, a bit slow but for 0.04p per connection I can easily live with that for now.

Thanks Random for this you've saved me a fortune :money:

I need to re connect my dial up modem sometime if I want to try but I wonder if anyone had tried it under the Primus free off peak Option 2 package.

I've used UK2
dial up in the past as an emergency back up. It's local call rates but always seems to work.

Hi
Folks im in a short term rented property at the min and need a isp that supplys dial up service with no contract . Im a big user of the internet so unmtered access would be good . Thought i found a isp when i used mip which you can buy 30 days Anytime - surf everyday for 30 days for £10 . Problem with this is in the terms and conditions you are limited to 80 hrs . I got kicked of after 2 weeks . Any help sourcing a cheap isp would be great .
thanks
