Pay as you go......

Has anyone tried Tiscali pay as you go for internet access? Does it work? I don't sit on the internet for long just long enough to access emails and check bank accounts. This possibly adds up to approx 5 hours per week. Is it worth it? i currently pay BT for the connection and Freeserve for use of their facilities.

    Why don't you try Fast 4. At £6.99 per month including all calls it will give you 24/7 Internet Access and if you can log on during the daytime, it is incredible value. Plus it is only a per month deal so if you don't like you can ditch it after one month. But there are a lot of happy users, including me. See the thread FAST4 CONNECTION DIARY 2. Contact on: https://www.fast4.net Otherwise if you just want a cheap dial-up using local rate calls try https://www.aardvaak.co.uk which is free but you pay for the calls.
