Does anyone know of a really cheap dialup provider? Thanks, Lenny. Lenny, Netzero still offers free dial up (10 hours/mo). If you need more hours, you can create multiple accounts. http://account.netzero.net/s/landing...e&group=fr ee Tony |

Some cities have a free service. http://www.emailaddresses.com/email_internet.htm Free Internet Access Providers: Now you can get online for the cost of a local call, or less! Many providers also offer web space, free email and other goodies... -- .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. |

The only way is typically to report your credit card lost. NetZero has no customer service whatsoever and will charge by the hour for leaving you on hold waiting for a overseas script reader. |

Here is a site that lists them all-http://www.freedomlist.com/ Before we went to cable, we used highstream.net and were really happy with it. If we ever decided to go with dial up again, I would go back to them. Or type in free or cheap isp in Google and you'll come up with lots of choices. |

There is a company of which the name eludes me right now - that offers like $4.95 a month - albeit the hours you can use it may be limited. They have other plans available. Do a google search for ISPs. It should produce some results. The one I have is $9.95 a month. Not bad but - slow for pictures and large files, but then I don't do many of those anyway. But I have unlimited access for that price. I am saving $120 a year over a similar service with the same speed and issues - which I was using before. |

AT&T's basic DSL is $24.95 month, making it only $5 month more than your former dialup service. John retired, but still working from home when the price is right ;-) |

I did a Google search on "cheap dialup service" and got lots of composite
sites. Peruse the list and choose one. I was on AllVantage for quite some time and felt they did a good job. WT |

.com... I did a Google search on "cheap dialup service" and got lots of composite sites. Peruse the list and choose one. I was on AllVantage for quite some time and felt they did a good job. WT I can't complain about mine - really. It does as good a job as the one I was paying $10 more for per month prior to it. The only thing is, as I already pointed out - "large" files and "pictures" are slow - but otherwise I'm happy. But - I don't do many "large" files or pictures - anyway. There are a few out there who as I said - charge like $4.95 a month, but you get only like 15 hours. I'm on a lot - daily with business and so on. Unlimited access for $9.95 a month, I'm not going to complain. Down time has been mimimal. My last provider also "was" carrying the News groups - but stopped - claiming it was costing him $2000 a month to do so. I find that a bit hard to believe, but whatever. Needless to say - out he went as a provider. |
