Yes but I think the big thing to remember is the *upto 8mbps broadspand disclaimer that all the ISP's favour.

Unfortunately the * means you willl be VERY lucky if you get half those speeds - I would be very happy getting those half speeds though tbh.

The 8mb was always utopia,add in the minimum speeds that are meant to be guaranteed(200k-400k)and 8mb looks a long way off

This puts it into real perspective I think

High Expectations for Low Prices


?We tell the truth to our customers. Every package has usage limits. The simple truth is that a pipe (34mb or 622mb) can only handle so much,? says David Mitchell, Commercial Manager for UK ISP Quik Internet (www.quikinternet.co.uk). ?So, when an ISP offers unlimited usage but without quality promises, you know what you're getting. You are getting a mass of users, many wanting many GB [GigaBytes] of usage, at fast speed. Simply put, PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DELIVER!?


unlimited hours,unlimited downloads for the cheapest price will always come at the price of speed
