4 Jul 2004 ~ 4:57pm Jimborae I might have had something muttered in my shell like guv'nor.

I'm not that offay with how Bulldog have things set up in the London exchanges but I don't think BT will be able to hold out much longer with only offering 1meg lines.

6 Jul 2004 ~ 3:10am bothered Are you listening NTL, Are you?
6 Jul 2004 ~ 3:27am PressX I pay £70 for 2MB + £45 for 1MB (Both 20:1). Back to rip off Britain!! :ukflag:

About time we had something done about this. US suppliers offer more for less. One guy I talk to has a 10MB Wirelss coneccton for $70!!!! Another gets 4MB on cable for about $40/50. :banghead:
6 Jul 2004 ~ 3:31am bothered It is very evident on this forum. Everthing in the USA is half the price it is here, except petrol, That's five times cheaper.
6 Jul 2004 ~ 4:17am PressX Sadly I know. I am/was a regular visitor to the good old US of A and so many times I have thought about hiring a container to get all the stuff I wanted at half the price we pay. I have nearly purchased a new Car. With all the import taxes and cost I could still run it for a year and get my money back!
