Hi
Is there any newsgroups provider allow customers to share their accounts?
I mean I can share an account (and bill, of course) with my friend?
I used to share my NewsHosting account with my friend and I got Newshosting abuse warning saying that it must be fixed or my account will be closed:wacko:.
Please help, I'm a poor student:pinch:.
I need newsgroups for my study (ebooks, CBTs, Virtual Training courses), neither pornographic XXX nor entertaining (movies, music):sick:.

No provider will offically condone it.
1 account = 1 account
not 1 account = 1/2 account + 1/2 account.

Normally newshosting accounts are strictly for one IP-adress at the same time. You'll have to find a way to pass that. So sharing an account is no problem on one computer which has a specific IP-adress. If your friend wants to log in on his/her own computer which will have another IP-adress, the host will notice and act accordingly (warning or removal of service).
