One big problem with taking a "free" service is that it gives you very little leverage for complaints unlike a paid for service.

and interestingly.. although free you are held to a 12 month contract!
so.. when you find the service sucks they dont even let you migrate!
so you just end up with 12 months of misery!
if you have a BT line try one of the ISPs that offer a 1 month contract to see what ADSL works like on your line! it may cost you extra but at least you wont end up having 12 months of terrible internet performance!
if you dont have an existing BT line chances are it is a lot cheaper to stay with VM
remember free isn't always the cheapest option!
