Broadband for £11.75

Couldn`t believe this at first - seemed too good to be true - but checked it out and is true.
The only drawback is a £60 activation fee - but the upside is a 3 month contract.

Here is how it works
1) 512/256 connection
2) 200 mb download in a month free.
3) each mb thereafter £0.0025
4) highest cost is capped at £23.99 plus VAT.

Seems like a good way to broadband for light users.
Here`s the link

There`s no such thing as a light broadband user. Once you get bitten by the speed, that 200Mb threshold is gonna run out real quickly and it`ll end up costing you loads.

Yes - but the woman or man said it was capped at 23.99.

Well - we all know I`m Spartacus. The original post clearly stated that this would be useful to low users - those after speed rather than massive downloads. I know that some months I run into tens of gigs, others just two or three - worth mentioning for those who migrate only a £40 fee.
Just surprised me that broadband was available for so little cost (admittedly probably a once off £85 cost for activation and a modem) - but means those using only for web browsing would gain.

To repeat I`M SPARTACUS ( may put my username on EBAY - £20k ;) )

I`ve been looking for a cheap Broadband connection for light useage for a while, so I for one will thank you for this post spartacus.

One of the reasons I want a Broadband connection is go onto Xbox Live, does anybody know how many MB per hour Xbox Live would use because I would probably use it 2-3hours per week ???

Thanks
