Seems to be a bit shit these days - I'm not even getting 3 days - a
load of ISO rars were just purged as I downloaded them. }-(

That was the 30 quid / year 10 Gig / month option.

Seeing as my year is just about up are there any better UK providers?
Or shall I just not bother...

I'd been using Claranews for a coupla years, they had gone though some fair
problems in that time. It didn't bother me much, but decided to try
elsewhere when my account came up for renewal.
I use Astraweb now, on a pay-as-you-go deal, though I don't download as much
as I used to (novelty worn off). Lots of other folk swear by Giganews,
Easynews etc.

I was with Clara for a year but moved to NewsHosting recently and it's much
better. I'm paying in $ and with the exchange reate being quite good then
it works out a good deal. Their unlimited account is around $83 for six
months and retention is 24 days.
