I stopped the autorenewal and will continue using it for the month (whatever I can get, I guess) then I don't know if I should pay for a different one or just use my ISP's...even though it's much slower.

I to stopped auto renew on mine as well, I am going to give http://www.powerusenet.com/ 5 day trial a go and then maybe stick with them. They are comparable price wise to usenetserver and even have a few extra days retention. BTW thanks for suggesting them ne'tu.
Problems, problems and more problems for Usenetserver users.
No real news in the links below, just substantiating what people here are reporting.
My problems have only gotten worse over the past couple of days.

Anyone try PowerUsenet lately?
I tried them about a year ago, and although they were stable speeds were only mediocre. That also could have been because they were only offering five connections at the time.
I haven't decided between them and a Giganews Platinum account yet. An extra 100 days retention my come in handy.
what about newshosting? giganews seems to be the best, but $25 a month? Seems like a lot. I don't know if I can justify that since my isp's is usually good...just not as fast.
newshostng are not profitably ,no ssl ,45/75 days retention.you can take much better for the same money.
anyone try http://www.news.astraweb.com/plans.html looks good?
Shame what's happened to Usenetserver. I guess they tried to offer too much too cheaply.
I have a 6Mb down connection and I was lucky to see more than 350-400 KB/s I always usually get between 750-800+ KB/s .
Maybe I did not give it a chance really I was so fed up with usenetserver that when after a day the speed did not get better I canceled and started looking again.
