24h ISDN Flat rate?

I have a requirement for a 24h broadband connection.

I'm 11k's off the local exchange and have finally managed to get BT/Demon to
agree it isn't going to happen with DSL (only took 4 months and alot of
accusations of my kit being faulty, but I digress)

Only thing I can think of is ISDN with a local device keeping it up.

Is there such a package these days? Demon or not!

Cheers

Tim

True 24/7 is not cheap:

http://www.uk.clara.net/claraaccess/isdn/ft_247a.php

The latter is 1:1 with no cutoffs. Make sure you're sitting down first.

13 hours a day on average can be had for £40/month:

Before ADSL, I was using Clara for 4 hours a day on average for £15/month:

BT Surftime Anytime is 105/quarter (inc VAT) while from memory, Demon
Premier Connect Plus is 19.99/month. Those are on top of line rent.

Premier Connect Plus is an upgrade from the SDU (standard dial up) a/c
