FASTEST ISP

Advantages speed, no engaged tones
Disadvantages none
THE fastest ISP in the UK, as rated by Internet Magazine. It takes on average less than 9 seconds to download a UK webpage compared to those ranked in positions 3 and below which take 16 seconds plus, Worldonline as the ISP is now called, (previously known as Screaming.net) is twice as fast as most ISP's when it comes to UK sites. The difference for U.S. and other European sites is less of a gap due to geographical network distances but any speed differential is welcome.
Their ISP service is first rate and availiablity is almost 100%, rarely do you get a chance to hear an engaged tone, and the mailservers are fast. Send an email to your self, and you get the message almost instantaneously. There also appears to be no limit on the attachment size as I have received 8mb files as attachments.Your email address is configured as anythingthingyoulike@username.worldonline.co.uk and allows you to have unlimited email aliases, as anything@username.worldonline.co.uk all gets sent to your mailbox. Great for the family or for creating 'tagged' email addresses for web form submissions (so you can track who is sending you the junk mail!)
Just dialup using their local call rate 0845 number and pay your normal phone charges for internet access to their World Online 'Classic' plan. They also offer free hours a month sort of a capped hours unmetered access (read my other article 'FASTEST ISP' in the Access with subscription/Payment section).You can sign up at their website worldonline.co.uk ...quite good topical content too. Faster than freeserve, AOL, BT internet, OneTel, 24-7 Freecall, NTL, IC24 (at time of writing) but try for yourself.
...Proof is in the pudding.
