I have read somewhere that Blueyonder provides a free Newsgroup service for their 10Mb line customers.
Currently I have been using Newshosting and find it great... But I have some financial worries at the moment and would like to cancel it.
Where can I get more information about Blueyonder Newsgroup?
Will they have issue in regards to the amount of download usage. I don't want to exceed their limits.
Thanks in advance
Configure your usenet software to connect to news.blueyonder.co.uk
You don't need to use a username and password to download. I can't remember whether you need to use them for uploading though.

Thanks for the help
what is the retention like?
Should I presume that everything is exactly the same as NewsHosting, apart from the retention...
How many Connections (bots) do they allow? Newshosting allow 8.
Will I still be able to max out my connection?
thanks again:)
They carry a lot of groups for an ISP, although nowhere near the number that premuim services such as NewsHosting do.
Retention is only about 3-4 days but completion had been excellent for the many years I had used their service. What's better is that there's no cap so you can just leave your usenet software running.
I imagine you'll likely max it out for most of the time - especially with a multiconnecting program such as NewsBin Pro.
