    Hi Pat,

    Yes, we are still offering the $96/year plan.

    If you would like to upgrade your account, please signup again for your new account on our website for the special:



    When prompted for your username/password, do not proceed. Instead, email us your new order number and username and we will convert your account. A pro-rated refund will be issued on your previous order.

    You will be billed $96 immediately and a refund will be issued for the unused time on your old account.


    Your E-mail is much appreciated.

    Best Regards,
    Daniel
    They were still selling the $96 annual sub yesterday. Works out at $8 a month.

    you signed up for the unlimited $10 a month plan which has the 1mb capped speed...1mb=128kb/s

    so your getting what you payed for...follow the link someone posted for unlimted DSL plan which has no speed caps and is only $1 more per month

    Governments of the Industrial World, you weary giants of flesh and steel, I come from Cyberspace, the new home of Mind. On behalf of the future, I ask you of the past to leave us alone. You are not welcome among us. You have no sovereignty where we gather [...] I declare the global social space we are building to be naturally independent of the tyrannies you seek to impose on us.

    Just to let you know - I got my refund and my a/c upgraded this morning. So, no probs there. With my luck, Astraweb will now proceed to go bankrupt...
