I had BTopenworld Anytime but got kicked off for over use so i went to BTopenworld ADSL.

Trust me if you live in the UK Dial up internet services are not worth using. There is an auto cutoff after 2 hours and you can't send a "heartbeat" to keep yourself connected it happened no matter what. Also BTopenworld anythjine is �14.99 a month and thats for only 150 hours online time a month, which to us is nothing. Also you can't use the phone at the same time meaing the cost of an additional line (�10) bringing us up to �24.99 a month for 150 hours online at 56K speeds and cutoffs every 2 hours. Compare that to what i pay, �27.99 a month unlimited online time, Phone can be used whilst online with no affect, and a data rate of 512K. Hardly seems worth the cost for dialup, i can never go back to it now.

512K: 200 Megabytes / Hour average (max 230.4 MB/hour @ 64k/s)
56K : 15 megabytes / Hour average (max 25.2MB/Hour @ 7k/s)
