How low can they go?

How low, indeed? In what’s now probably the cheapest broadband in the UK, ADSL4less.com are offering a 2Mbps connection for just £11.99.

The price comes with the qualification of a monthly 2GB bandwidth limit with extra charged at £1.75 per gig per month. Migrating to the service costs £14.99 or for a first time connection fee £58.75 and the supply of your own hardware.

But, horses for courses, it’s the kind of deal that’s likely to tempt if you are light user or unconvinced about trading up from your trusty 56k dial up modem. And especially so when at £11.99 per month the subscription is well into the price point of unlimited dial up access.

For those with bigger bandwidth requirements ADSL4less offer unlimited bandwidth broadband connections starting at £14.99 for a 512kbps service.

As usual, shop around for the best deal. What represents best value for money varies from person to person depending on individual circumstances.
