[Woozle]

We?re writing with some important news. On May 20, 2005, Access4Less.net will discontinue offering dial-up Internet access.

Whine, Whine, Whine, Whine.

bubye 5 bucks internet

 

[w0ss]

damn I used them as an ISP for my fiance's family. Anyone got any recomendations for a replacement?

 

[mscdex0]

if you have broadband, usually (at least SBC does) they give you free (depending on provider, may be slightly limited) dial-up access across the country.

Edit: You can also now use this for free for 30 days, and then it's only $5.95/mo afterwards.

150+ cheap dial-up ISP's

 

[kindest]

ya.. dissappointing news.
they are moving to earthlink at 9.99 a month now... kinda crappy.

 

[gsaldivar]

Dammit, I just signed up a client with them.

Anyone try Internet express? They used to be my DSL isp and were fine then...

http://www.ixpres.com/

The catch:

* New sign ups only. Some restrictions apply. Offer valid through April 30, 2005.
* $5.25 price applies to first three months of service, after which $8.49 price applies.
* $6.25 price applies to first three months of service after which $12.49 price applies

Dial-Up 4 Less

Intergate ISP (<-- I am currently using as a backup service, email, and traveling access)

ISP.com

Netscape ISP

All are $9.95/month or less when pre-paying 6 ~ 12 months.

For you or the service?

"Um, dear...I don't know about this w0ss character."

Tico, Where are you from? I have seen your posts a few times and have asked you the same question but you have never replied.

Take care

khurios2000,
You got access-4-free for $5/month.
It was $10/month for me.

I used allvantage.com for about 1.5 years until I recently got broadband. Never any problems and 5.95 a month. Just a heads up.

 

[nohomers]

A4L was a great ISP, never a single problem in over 2 years I'm thinking of giving Total Call International a try ($4.95/m unlimited access - no setup fee) but I don't see much on the reviews on Freedomlist other than the worrysome comments about their order form not using SSL! Might try allvantage based on the good feedback I've seen...

Subbaculcha-thanks for the heads up on allvantage. I signed up this afternoon for my 2 week trial. Seems like a similar altenative to access4less

I only do when on vacation, and i generally just snag a FREE month AOL disc before leaving and cancel before coming home.

Blazing Hot.

 

[conehead433]

Hot Deal here somewhere?

 

[ttown]

people in western wa, and now new-england area can try

www.nocharge.com for free

no "dialer" needed and generic username/password

My dad was with them for a couple years, then they reduced their coverage (phone#'s) and spun-off "ncplus.net" which is ~$8/mo or so, and includes personal web-hosting and email.
My dad's been with nocharge.com/ncplus.net for many years with no problems.

Can't get much hotter than that.... if you're lucky enough to live in the few areas covered.

 

[LurkingInNC]

Wonder why I haven't received the message yet?

Anyone with Netscape experience? I've been using the a4less express for $8.95 and find the 'express' thing to be very much worth it. Supposedly Netscape includes an 'acceleration' feature in thier $9.95 price instead of an add on charge...

I am in good ol Tucson...

 

[DanDaMan315]

Looks like we have a group of people who need to "experience" broadband, because I swear you can NEVER go back. Dial up is just, omg horrible after using cable.
