What's the point of a lovely 1mb connection when you are limited to a measly 2GB per month?!

you can check your emails at the speed of sound?

What im listening to (if youre interested)

If you are with BT and have done 12 months on a half meg connection, then ring them up and tell them you are leaving for a better deal.

They upgraded me to 1Meg for free, after a friendly chat with their retension department, without a new contract. The limit is currently 20GB/month - plenty for me.

Apparently prices are set to change soon, with the 2 Meg becoming readily available.

Cheers

I am with Prodigy Networks, £14.99 per month for 2mbs limited to 2GB download.

I have only just used 1GB after nearly 4 weeks. 2GB limit is more than enough unless you are downloading masses of music or video.

www.prodigynet.co.uk

free transfer from your existing adsl provider.

then £14.99 to upgrade your speed

I am currently on freeserve paying £27.99 a month for unlimited downloads on a 512k service.

I want to upgrade to 1mb or higher, but to do so, I have to take on Freeserves new choices, ie download limits, which I dont want to do as I use the internet a lot.

Are there any other companies that are offering higher speeds, with a reasonable price and no download limits. The only other that I can see is AOL and I hate them with a passion!!!

Matt,

Have a look at www.supanet.com they will give you 1Mbs with no download limits for £22.96...

Yes, it is on a minimum 12 month contract, but thats still a £60 saving on what you have now and are getting more service!!

Regards

Pete

DON'T GO WITH SUPANET!!!!!
They're part of the Time/Tiny group.
Check out Eclipse for unlimited packages with fantastic customer support too. Usually top or thereabouts in the ADSLGuide polls.

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..

I looked at Supanet a while ago. However, I think on dvdforums someone mentioned that they are not P2P friendly.
