Some advice please for potential new customer

[w7it]

This is a nervous time especialy for me , i am looking to change ISP`s , it makes me nervous as i have a very internet active modern family and loosing what my kids see as a basic utility but what there parents see as a luxury would mean certain and instant death for my overworked and under paid carcass
the Wifes crops would die ( ffs   ) the kids would loose Xbox and steam and whatever else they fill there laptops with ( junk ) i would loose twitter  and access to the web sites i run and maintain

So after that odd intro i am after advice on which package i should be looking at here on IDNet, presently we pay around £30 a month, we have ADSL2+ at the exchange and it is enabled for WBC on 21CN Market3 

some advice on which package is best suited to our needs would be apprecitated and also is there free web space with the packages ? this is not hugely essential but always helps if there is

Thanks

£24.99/month will get buy 180Gb of download bandwidth (uploads aren't counted), 40Gb for peak hours and 140Gb available between midnight - 9am, also 2Gb of webspace

£34.99 will buy 360Gb, 60Gb in peak time, the rest off peak, plus 3Gb of webspace.

IDNet do not block any ports or throttle the connection.

  and what Glenn said. 

[Rik]

Hi and welcome to Netters.

What Glenn said and I'll raise him a blog and a photo album, if you want them, plus as many idnet.com addresses as you need.

[Glenn]

Home SuperPro, also has traffic priority through the exchange

[adamr8965]

  Here what the others have said, no throttling or port blocking. £34.99 will give  you priority given at the exchange over standard ADSL traffic, so you'll see even faster speeds at peak times, Plus it only a 1month contract, Support is very good. Plus if you have broadband already then can change it over in 3 working days normally

[Rik]

Oh, and there's 0800 support which is answered by real people in a few seconds. I think that's the end of the sales pitch.

[adamr8965]

I beat rik, i told him about support first, plus theres a 01 number if you have free landline calls from your mobile

consider me refered  

MAC code requested from present supplier, weekend means nothing happens now for 2 days, when the wife drags herself out the pit i will sell IDNet to her, once she has looked at the fine print, hasstled me for a cup of Tea, moaned about the state of the lounge, checked her crops and opened the windows i cant see it being an issue to move here

i may have missed it above but is there any free web space ??
dont answer , i did miss it , the answer was a yes ...that is very helpful to me 

[Rik]

Yes, 1-3GB depending on package, it can be used as 'straight' web space, photo albums or blog space, or divided between all three. There's nothing fancy attached though, eg PHP.

If you're just using straight html you'll be fine.

dont forget the vast array of knowledge,info,tips,humour,DR food facts,joviality,witty comments,friendly sarcastic comments,verbal fisty cuffs etc etc that goes on in here


its all good fun though 

[Rik]

You left out how good we are at spending other people's money, Baz.

[Baz]

who do you think you are Rik....my wife 

[Rik]

I'm probably better at it than she is, Baz. 

[Baz]

well yes you have a point there she is pretty good on the financial side of things, UNLIKE YOU WHO GETS US TO SPEND SPEND SPEND

[Rik]

Actually, I've earned that reputation falsely you know. It was Glenn who introduced me to DR and to the various pasty suppliers, we should blame him. 

[Baz]

YEAH GLENN  ITS YOUR FAULT 

[Baz]

I hope we're not putting you off w7it
