[BNM] Best ADSL contract?

[Alan Newman]

When you say "capped" - what do you mean? Is this "fair usage" (cough)
(volume capping) or speed capping?

I'm still with Zen, what they've done for home users is upped the speed,
lowered the price and capped, existing customers can either keep their old
tariff and stay uncapped, or go for the new tariff and be capped.  Your
folks must've missed the email . . .
wouldn't go near the carphone warehouse deal unti they've stopped being
snowed under, it'll be a kafka'esque nightmare when it goes wrong, as it
surely will.
I recommend my clients who want a simple life to go to moving-edge (morning
lads) , they aint the cheapest (but cheaper than zen), the fastest or the
prettiest, and you dont get a free email address, but damn they're good.
