I am thinking of using these guys. PAYG broadband sounds very reasonable.
Has anyone used them. Are they good. Any views will be appreciated

I've had perfect service from them. Only complaint is that it has been a little
slow over the early part of this week, but they did advise this in advance due
to some upgrades that were going on.

Not bad but the prices do not include VAT that can make it as expensive as
the rest..

VAT is only 17.5% so for moderate or low users it is still cheaper
than *anything* other ADSL product. Its not the cheapest for heavy
use, obviously.

Service is excellent. Probably only worth it if you are a low to moderate
user. My monthly bill for using around 50 Mbytes per day is £15.

Agreed it is a good deal, especially if you go on holiday for a few weeks
every now and again.

Also I hear the customer support is very good indeed.

Well worth taking the plunge.


Oh btw your team are going to get a stuffing tomorrow..

I've been using them for the last couple of months and they've been
fine. I migrated to them from BT because I spend large amounts of time
overseas so I only have to pay £10 a month while I'm away.

Customer technical support is excellent, they know what they are talking
about and also they are one of the few who admit to using and will answer
questions on Linux.
