AOL Broadband Upgrade

Yeah, I was talking to an AOL representative last night and I wanted to know how long I had been an AOL member for, and he told me the year then I asked whether or not the AOL ISP do price matches to beat competitors' ISP price plans and they said it depends how much the competitor is offering broadband for. I told them the deal and they said they had a deal for AOL members who have been with AOL for 5+ years. It's 8meg broadband, 60gb fair usage limit and unlimited evening and weekend calls for £6.99. I was previously paying £14.99 a month for the same thing, so now I'm saving £8 a month. If you've been an AOL member for 5+ years, you might as well upgrade to the £6.99 package. ;)

Don't trust them, I was offered a free upgrade and wireless router and they limited me to 10GB per month despite being told I would have unlimited. They will stiff you :P

Lol, they've been fine with me for the last 6 years. They told me my £14.99 plan was 10gb per month.

That's your opinion but they're not that bad.

They're not bad, your right..

They're TERRIBLE

They're so stupid too, they changed my address 8 times because they don't understand English, really peed me off and put my order off by 8 weeks so I moved to o2 instead of AOL.

Yeah, the limit is a put off but I never went over the 10gb I used to have in the £14.99 deal.

I used AOL, they are ok in some ways but the uptime is horrendous. The speed kept slowing down etc. So now I'm on o2 broadband and I'm loving it :D

I used to be on AOL, fine if 1000kbps download is good enough for you. But broadband completely depends on the area you live in, some people find it terrible.
