I've got my MAC from Sky, but the only thing is, who do I go to?!

I'm thinking of AOL as they give a Free Wireless Router with signups.

Anyone think of a better idea?

Thanks.

Bwahahahahahahaha ! Is it just freebies you want ?

How about using your brain (assuming you have one) ?

Graham

p.s. a hint: the more freebies you get, the worse the actual service is likely
to be or hadn't you yet managed to work that one out ?

Without knowing your usage it is hard to say.

Signing-up and upgrading with AOL is very easy. Cancelling is not so easy
and downgrading to a cheaper option is almost impossible.

If you have a vodafone contract phone the offer from them
looks quite good. £25 a month and £25 for a wireless router
seems like a good deal, that includes your line rental as
well.

Why are you leaving Sky first of all?

I've only been with them 2 days, but my PC has been on permanently since I
migrated from namesco and the line hasn't sropped once and the speed has
stayed at a constant 4 Mbits......

With namesco the max was 3 Mbits, but lately an average of 1 Mbits with
frequent dropouts and paying £25 for the privilege.

Before namesco I had PlusNet - which was similar to namesco.

Before that I had Zen whose service was OK - but the price was £25 per
month.

Before that I had Freeserve who at the time had a rubbish billing system
where I had to pay manually every month.

Sky is best so far, but I should probably offer my opinion again in a
month's time, but for £10 a month with the fastest line speed out of all
ISP's I've had and no dropouts in 2 days - THAT CAN'T BE BEAT SO FAR - for
me anyway!

For which level of service ?

Just tell us. Do you regret leaving Zen ?
