I got BB because I got fed up with the two hour cutoff on dial-up which would always screw up any downloads I was trying to get so I think my reasons for choosing BB over Dial-up are valid..

Ntl have always been capping us.Remember the free 24/7 always on dial-up we were promised way back when?All we had to do was sign up and wait for the cd.

I waited 16 months and two months after I got my disk they were charging ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£10 to us dial-up 24/7 customers.I was allowed a 6 month sabbatical before I had to pay a fiver.After a year it went up to the full sum.Gee thanks ntl!

I never really expected much from ntl since then.They are trying to make money after all and at least they were more honest than some 24/7 dial up ISP's that took my money and then ran.....

Incog.
