I've just worked out that my 600k modem and digi base pack cost me over £500 a year! It's suprising how it adds up..........

Don't forget the price includes your phone line rental.... might make the total a little easier to swallow...

Hey - that's nothing.
I was once billed £500 in one month for having had ntl services - apparently, according to their computer, since 1905!

Ours used to be similar, but instead of the Disney channels we used to have the OAI at £7.50. Came to a tidy sum of £75.49, or £905.88 a year
