Just signed up for $96 deal using link below. No need for emails to customer service or anything.

Was previously on $11/month which I cancelled a three weeks ago.

Honestly I would look into getting the $25 for 180gb, *depending on how much you download*. In 3 months you'll spend $33 for unlimited, but you might not even download 180gb in 3 months.

Also, Tech support for astraweb is exceptional.. I submitted a ticket the other day and within an hour it had been taken care of.

That's good to hear they have decent customer service.

On a related note I signed up for the 180GB block 4 days ago and already cleared about half that space, so now I'm deciding between the $96 plan and the $11 plan. Tbh I'm leaning towards the $96 plan. It's hard to beat that bang for the buck, plus Astraweb's service has been top notch so far.

Now if only another ISP besides Compost, er, Comcast would come to my area.

I really don't actually download that much real stuff either... but I tend to download porn (or HD porn ) and the porno ends up not being what I expected. So I try again. That actually takes a decent amount of dl traffic...

Decisions decisions...

if going for block accounts there is better deals out there, usenet-news and blocknews would be the way to go for block accounts.

anybody else on astraweb getting prolonged timeouts? I know they had an atlantic fibre break, but I can't see that knocking out both server farms.

[cooldude75ph]
