You should get a price around £58 per quarter, £18 per month or less. > I am happy with BTconnect as an ISP but wonder whether the cost is not too high. > My connection is a business account and alternative ISPs seem all to be for > private/home use. So? It's only a connection. They don't care whether you put a router or a modem at the other end, how many machines are sharing the business connection? What's the point of a business account? Paying 40% more in order to get a 20% tax rebate is just illogical! Even if you are a higher rate tax payer, it makes no sense to pay extra for the privilege of getting it discounted from your tax. > I like the unlimited use I have as it means I do not have to worry about exceeding > a limit. Limited broadband has all but disappeared, despite the adverts that try to say it is commonplace. If you pay monthly, you shouldn't put up with broadband limits - the only issue is contention, how many other subscribers share your connection upstream. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
