Advantages: Fast, reliable, can access any time of day free of charge (only if you have a cable telephone and TV), I have not though had to test the technical support service
Disadvantages: Slows down at night through to early morning

...I have been on NTL for about 6 months, and I cannot fault the internet service that they provide. They offer a very cheap, reliable, fast internet service all the time. NTL internet works out cheaper when you actually have the telephone and cable tv. I have not really had any problems as such yet. I access the internet everyday, anytime of the day. During the day, the internet is quite fast, but at night and early hours of the morning, the internet can become quite slow. I cannot comment on the technical services as I have not required its services yet. I would reccommend NTL to anyone that can get it in their area.... Read review

Advantages: Easily set out and explained
Disadvantages: Could have gone into more detail in later chapters

...This is a genuinely good book that backs the trusted trademark of ".. for Dummies" which has proved throughout its series of books that it is the best when it comes to self-help guides. Packed full of internet links to the best of the net and tips on how to get the most of the internet plus explainations on how the internet works. There's also a section on how to optimize your internet connection which is a feature that I have only seen in this book. This will come as no surprise when I advise internet novices to get this book if you are thinking of getting online.... Read review

Advantages: quite fast
Disadvantages: no more 24 hours free internet

...Worldonline started very promising but like most internet companies they can't keep their word. When worldonline first took over screaming.net they increased internet speed, made it eaiser to log on and offered customers 24 hours free internet. Six months later, they have increased their monthly line rental from £10 to £15 and have stopped the 24 hours free internet. At present you get 100 hours of free internet calls a month. Although this is more than enough for the average user is it no substitute for 24 hours free internet call. Internet speed is quite fast. Most of the time download rate is around 5.2k....
