Being stuck out in a rural area I'm not at all likely to see BT Broadband
for some time yet.
Our local exchange has a trigger point of 400 and we only have 157
registered.

got service to several villages in this area so I'm considering this serv=

The service is advertised as 512k download, 256k upload for =A323.50 a mo=

with a minimum term of two years.

However before I approach them I thought I'd ask the list if there are an=
y
salient questions that I should be asking?

Thanks
