Hello,
A few months a year, I tend to like to go away for a bit and get away from home and work life. However, I must admit, I do enjoy still having access to the internet, particularly in the evenings.
Currently, in addition to my VM broadband, I pay for AOL dialup at £15 a month, because I know it will always work and it's always there if I go away. All I need is a phone socket, and I can hook my PDA or laptop up to it and connect, and then have unlimited usage.
However, £15 a month for occasional service is quite high. Unfortunately, when I do use the internet when I'm away, I use it quite a bit (1p/3p pay as you go would get quite expensive all in one month).
Therefore, I am trying to look for some alternative way of getting service, either a cheap plan or one which can be paid for for an individual month.
The best I have found is
myinternetpass which looks like a good idea and just what I am looking for. However, most reviews of them seem quite poor (although most are quite old from 2004 when they were new, and perhaps they were early difficulties).
Has anyone used myinternetpass, a service like it, or could recommend a good service provider for occasional but heavy usage? Avoiding paying a high monthly price for 10 months of the year when it is not being used would indeed be quite nice.
Any help would be highly appreciated,
Thanks in advance
