As you only require internet access for a short time (until you get broadband) I would suggest that you join one of the pay-as-you-go schemes.
Orange run one at orange.co.uk, when you get there look for internet access and click on Orange Shop, then Dial Up and they can enrol you over the net. I think it costs around 1p per minute but they display the charges when you get there.I have retired from a career in Financial Services........Thank God. Any advice given may be as a result of senile dementia so dont take it too seriously.......

the basic website scares me though. What's the catch?0

Beware, most free evening and weekend packages exclude certain classes of numbers including dial up internet access( usually 0854)!That gum you like is coming back in style.0

AOL are doing a 1 month free trial dial up if you are a new customer. Just be sure to cancel within the month.0
