Zen are reckoned to be good, but I think it's £50+VAT = £58.85. Claranet
are £50 inc VAT.

You get what you pay for. BTOpenwoe is the cheapest ADSL service
available, and it shows. The only good thing about the mail server and
translucent proxy is that they are slightly more reliable than the news
server :-O

Choose your ISP carefully, you will be committed for at least a year.
Consider whether you'd rather pay £600 for a quality service or £480
for something less than reliable.

Cheers
