to bond the channels to 128k involves 2 calls, and is billed as such.
the only benefit is connect speed... (time taken to dial / handshake)

Because some people can't get ADSL or Cable and considering BT have postponed their plans for Midband, ISDN is the only viable option for a faster connection. Whilst it may not suit you or your budget, it does for some people
