    £50 is a bit steep but you pays for what you get.

    Well I went for the 512/256 no modem Home package cos I had my own modem + filters, but no, i don't pay any extra charges. Costs me £22 per month all in.

    you get 250Mb of webby space too

    www.plus.net dont do free activation, its £58 activation for plus.net on all of thier BB. I was tempted to go with plus.net but then I figured that £58 could pay for almost 3 months BB with freedom2surf.

    If all goes well, Tiscali should cancel my account in about 2 weeks time, then I will be able to sign up with F2S!

    EDIT

    Its free activation on thier easy starter, which costs 24.99 a Month.

    freedom2surf dont charge you for the activation fee if you stay with them for 12 months. If you leave them before 12 months, you have to pay the activation charge, if you leave them after 12 months you dont pay anything.
