I think they are Entanet deals but L2TP so Freeola do the billing etc themselves, so the packages on offer are a bit different to a vanilla reseller like UKFSN or ADSL24. The peak/off peak times are a bit of a giveaway but I stand to be corrected.
And yes, after a month they're not cheap but the 1 month contract makes it easy to move, and the 1st month deals make it cheap to get started.

Looks fair enough. But the prices seem higher than normal Entanet.

Does it come within the ALT tool?

I'm fairly sure that the L2TP partners still have to put up with the ALT. Prices are a bit higher than normal Entanet but things like overusage charges can be a bit less if you just go over; normal Entanet is

As you say, that half-price startup is worth

And they are definitely Entanet resellers. Check out the support site for instructions on setting up a connection using a modem.

Have also been looking at the various options myself.
bit of 'you pays your money and takes a chance'.
Will have to bite the bullet and pay the connection charge, to avoid a 12 monts contract it appears.
Will carry on looking.
Thanks for all your helpful replies, food for thought!.

not MAX ......

If you click the No contract broadband at the bottom of the page you link to you get to this page, and the table and the paragraph above it are what I was referring to.

However they word it, Be Unlimited and Pro are a rolling 3-month contract with a buy-out option. Be Value is monthly contract after the first 12 months.

And the providers list on the left? Hmmm!

Duff info!

I gave 3 months notice on my Be line in August and they were still squatting the line in January when I received a 'sorry you are leaving' mail. So my view is leaving Be is neither quick or easy.

Plusnet have upped their game over the last year or so, won't go bust and have low start up costs and easy to change products should your chum start getting the hang of it. Worth a look.
