I've just signed up for AOL's (UK) new deal whereby you get an anytime 0800 number for a flat rate of £14.99 per month.
The trouble is it's a slow as watching paint dry. I'll probably stick it out a few more days to make use of the 50 hours totally free trial, but quite honestly I'd rather pay for the phone calls and have my lightning fast (usually) line one connection.
The other problem is that I've got Outlook Express full of files related to BALPA work and AOL won't let you use Outlook Express as your mail server.
Does anyone know of any other ISP, with a similar flat rate anytime deal, that goes at a sensible speed and lets you use IE5 / OE5?
Anyone got any comments on ADSL (or home highway)? Is it worth the money? Will it be available in darkest East Kent (Herne Bay).
When's it gonna come down in price?
BTW, off peak deals don't interest me as I tend to do a lot during the day.

Keep it up!
