thats the 'cheapo' 19.99 a month option,

15gig limit on 512k, is 25 quid a month,

1meg is 29 a month with a 30 gig limit, limits won't apply till early 2005.

30Gb is more than enough for me anyway so I won't need to worry about hitting the cap.

Just ordered it and waiting for it to be connected on the 26th. Seems a bit long for a transfer (and probably flicking a switch from 512k to 1Mb

) but can't wait!!!!

help....

I currently have bt broadband 512k, i want to upgrade to the 1Mb service. I am in a little dither as bt also offer a Bt Yahoo! broadband 1 Mb for an extra £1 this includes 15mb webspace and 100mb file storage plus email addresses which i am intrested in!

What id like to know, is it worth moving to this Yahoo broadband or just have the standered upgrade. Does anyone used Yahoo broadband cause i dont want to have yahoo littering my pc with junk like toolbars etc..

Can you let me know what it is like to use?

thx

The 30GB cap doesn't kick in until next year.

Switching from 512KB to 1MB involves 3 more line tests and some work at the exchange.

I thought it was £29.99 for the 1MB server as that is what they are charging me.

yes £29.99 is the one. I think i am gonna just stick with the current upgrade instead of mincing around this yahoo thing.

cheers

Originally I planned on moving from BT 512kb, (had it for 3 years now), to Plusnet 2Mb, (was with them yonks ago on one of those £60 per year unlimited dialup plans), but I couldn't be arsed with switching and all the probable downtime that would entail.

So I ordered the 1Mb upgrade and it's been activated later today. \0/

ONE DAY!!! TO upgrade in ONE DAY!!!

I have had to wait 2 weeks and I still have to wait until tomorrow!!!

Then again I am looking forward to downloading Xbox games in hours instead of days

Post by **Toothy** » Mon Jul 19, 2004 1:25 pm

No no no!!!

I ordered it about three weeks ago m8.

It's now been enabled and I'm now connected at 1.1Mbps.
