"What was it that made you ... (1.1)"

... sign up with Freeola for your Web Site/E-mail/Internet usage???

Well, it is.

FreeOLA - Free Online Access.

I never knew Freeola was an ISP. I thoght it was just an FTP client or web administrator thingymajig that gave you domain names.

Ironically, I got home today and found my ISP had died. Someone spilt coffee on the database box or something, so I used Freeola!

I don't suppose you had anything to do with this Andrew, hmm? :)

I didn't. I signed up to Register.com !!!

I understand why you have to do this. I have to admit though I don't have my Freeola connection set up but I do still remember all the deatils. Freeola is my "roaming connection". I've used it several times when people say I can use the Internet - and forget to tell me their password!

Actually, my site needs severely updating and F2S are hanging their service. Eee...

I could almost sign up!

Hmmm, just been to turbonutter.com and I see that if I do sign up, I can get an e-mail address at turbonutter.com... hehehe... [email protected], now that would be funny. ;) (Only joking TN!!!)

We've always told people this. If you work in the technical ISP industry you know this is how it works. The other reason for the dial is security, if you dial up on Freeola we can track your call logs but this is rarely done. Another consideration is that we don't put any banner adverts on your site.

So, you basically just gave away the way to work around the systems eh?

I have already checked you details and found your site comply wih this rule. We are not enforcing this because we want to be cruel but because we need to make money. Freeola's only source of income is the 0845 number and most people own a modem, if not we sell them at a very reasonable price.

Exactly, and if Bob would like to check my details I think he'll find I have no such methods of doing this. Ha. :)
