Unhappy

Be very careful about Freeserve's free calls deal (£10 per month minumum sub).
I paid loads of money to BT on the old Freeserve deal, and applied for Freeserve Time. After a couple of months or so I was allowed to sign up, and it worked. Then I made my big mistake. I had a new modem line put in, and Freeserve did not recognise my password because my number had changed. I called them and they promised to change it in two or three days. Seven weeks ago, that was, and I am still being fobbed off with promises. They have charged me all the same.
Worse, I try to connect every day to see if my boat has come in, and in anything like a peak time the modem returns an unobtainable signal, suggesting that FS have bitten off more than they can chew, and the system is in overload. For the time being, at least, avoid. And sell the shares!
