I think it may be worth calling or Emailing Simon at IDNet before I make up my mind over the weekend  :fingers:

Wow, there was a bit of an A&A bashing going on here...

To be fair, I see their point; if BadPianoPlayer was using 3.03 GB peak in a month on the 2GB package then from their PoV someone is not paying their way and they will ask that he upgrade to the 4 GB package.  I don't see how that is a conspiracy.

A&A provide a huge amount of user-accessible data on usage and allowances, including totals per hour for every day, so I cannot accept that any subscriber could be ``surprised'' at the end of a month.  It is all there is black-and-white ( and red ) right up to the most recent full hour.

As for moving back to IDNet, bear in mind that 18:00 to 00:00 weekdays and daytime weekend hours will additionally count as peak, so keep a close eye on your usage if you have become accustomed to using the Internet at those times.  Again, check your A&A data to see when you download most, before you move, as no other ISP will offer such an insight into your usage patterns.

It's a shame you weren't happy with A&A but they have a very specific target user profile..

I think in David's defence he went to AAISP in an attempt solve his adsl 2+ line problems. Unfortunately his usual daily usage profile doesn't match economically with AAISP's pricing structure. He may only use for 4GB /month  out of a potential daytime/off peak allocation of 102Gb but then gets penalised for 2GB over usage . To pay a further £6/month in David's case surely is not sensible.

I don't think there is any bashing going on I have never bashed any isp..well Tiscali got a bit of an earache but not that much I dont think I ever made any remarks about IDNet when I left and I am not bashing A&A its the pricing structure I don't comprehend and that would be for me to try and see what is going on the basis for this "discussion" is not to bash anyone but to just work out a new pricing tariff which from my first statement with this tariff looks to have quite an effect on what it will cost me to be online.
Now lets put things right.

The service from them is brilliant from my point of view
The speed is OK given that BT are in the chain

I could go to BE LLU but for some inexplicable reason ....I have my doubts

I have been with IDNEt and know them I would get much more download usage should I decide on returning

I dont need beath taking speeds I believe this is a bit of a myth as long as you get enough for what you want and as I dont game I think you would agree that although it may sound naive I may have a point.
In my view and I would be the first to say I know very little in this tech world.whats the point in thinking in great speeds it can only operate at a speed a particular line can manage  :dunno:unless we bring in FFTC which can be ignored for the time being.

Bottom line if I can maintain the line profile and get more use without worrying about whether or not I am going over my daily allowance then that will be the factor I guess which will help me make up my mind I am a very light user I think so anyway and it would appear that the changes
brought in recently may not be very cost effective in my case.

So no isp bashing gone on just me with my confusion and some points of view of others I honestly cant see any bashing of anyone which has occurred  :dunno:

I have just heard from A7A and apparently I have exceeded my download allowance since I joined so the new tarriff I guess has made little effect on me I do have some concerns however and seeking to see if I owe them any money ?  :dunno:
