Bruce, Here's more on the Free Net services in the UK: freeserve.com Freeserve is the UK's first fully featured free Internet service. There are no registration or set-up fees and no monthly subscription charges to pay. The only thing you pay for is the local rate phone call to access the service. Calls will appear on your phone bill in the usual way. - No registration or subscription charges - 100% local rate phone call access - Free unlimited e-mail addresses - Free 15MB of web space - Free UK content - Free online e-mail support - Free sign-up and registration software - 24 hour telephone technical support line (premium rate call) Because we are not charging a subscription fee for Freeserve, we cannot provide free telephone technical support. Calls to our support line cost 50p per minute at all times and we expect the average call to be approximately 5 minutes. (The cost of calling the telephone support line is merely intended to cover our operating costs Freeserve is owned by Dixons Stores Group- advertiser revenue driven.. right? I wonder what 60p/hr local phone charge translates into? Thanks, Orlando
