At the moment I have plain old dial-up and I am thinking of finally changing
to broadband.

Let's say I have found a broadband rate of £15 per month - does this mean
that I pay £15 outright as opposed to paying £12 for dial-up plus £x
everytime I connect to the Internet?

I'm sorry if this sounds like a really stupid question but the various FAQs
I've come across don't make it that clear.

Thank
Stephen.

Yup, that's about it.

That may not be true it depends how much you download check the
adverts. Some offer unlimited but a lot in the small print say for £15
you only get 2 gig download a month so if you go over that you may be
charged extra or you may be cut back. www.plus.net offer 5gig for
£14.99 and 30 gig is £21 all on 2 meg free setup and modem but with
them you get 250 meg webspace and newsgroups. If you sign up with them
it asks for a refer put in mwright

When I change from Demon dial-up to Demon Home Office the cost
appeared to be double. For dial-up I was paying for Surftime and
getting stung with hundreds of dial-up connection charges. I canceled
Surftime and with broadband there are no connection charges so the
cost works out lower than dial-up.

Demon Home Office is an excellent and it still has a usenet service.
You'll find most of the cheap broadband services do not include
usenet.
