Re: FN-FORUM BigBlueSky turns grey!

I've finally found a 24/7 supplier after a lot of fruitless searching.

We've recently moved into a new house and to my horror I discovered
that, because we are on a NTL line here, 99% of ISPs are unusable by
us.

NTL didn't seem interested in sending us an NTL World CD, possibly
because we live in Peckham, one of the poorest areas of London [the
only broadband service here is Homechoice - it says a lot about who
the ISPs really want to get online].

Finally, after receiving a horrendous months phone bill for
pay-as-you-go net usage, I gave in and got an AOL CD. And guess what?
It's the fastest and most reliable modem ISP I've ever used.

I am pleasantly shocked.

Charlie. [wondering if MS will now turn out to be nice & cuddly]
