Subject: RE: BS: UK Internet access
Bron, I dont know how much internet use you have but I have seen you on hearme at night and it doesn't take long for the pennies to add up. I think you really should consider making a move to an ISP that at least offers unmetered off peak access.

I use the internet a lot (typically, I am connected from the time I get up to when I go to bed) and the only way I can afford that is with a 24/7 deal. The only problem I have is I am hard to get hold of on the phone. I don't make many outgoing calls and few people who have not got internet access want to get in touch with me - has anybody got any suggestions as to the best solution? I'd say I only make about £3 of non outgoing calls per month and probably recieve (or would like to recieve) about a dozen incoming calls. Would a mobile phone be a good idea? I don't mind a one off payment but I don't want to be paying much in the way of mothly charges.
