Brings back memories! Brb, just off to order 512 kbps with 1 GB usage.

My first ADSL ISP was Pipex in mid 2002, I ordered as soon as my exchange was enabled. It was a pretty reasonable £23.44 inc vat, which I think undercut BT by some margin. "Wires only" without an engineer visit had already been introduced by that point.

Remember how fast that was, compared with dial-up???

I still have my Frog somewhere...

From September 2001 on BTopenworld Home 500/Home 1000/Home 2000. Then ADSLMax on <n>ildram. Moved to ADSL2+ from ADSL24. I'm now with plusnet on FTTC since 28/05/2014 and loving it... I'm not saying who I work for. Any opinions expressed here are my own.
