Internet Connection

I had Tiscali Broadband. My bill was in arrears because they began charging me for phone calls and I use BT for my phone calls. So Tiscali cut me off.

I got a prepaid Internet pass card for £10, and it offers either 30 days unlimited or 2000 minutes over an indefinite period. It is dial-up and sooooo slow!!!! All the same, it is a good system especially when using shared computers as each card gives you a user name and a password so you can log on to any computer and the costs come off your prepaid internet pass.

The slowness really got on my nerves though and I painstakingly over 2 hours (!!!) downloaded a free trial of Onspeed which claims to compress data and speed up slow internet connections. well, I can tell you it works! This is even faster than my Tiscali Broadband was so I will buy their product for £24.99 for a year. For the sake of my shredded nerves, it is worth it.

It is such a relief to have this sorted out.
