Prices might be good, but speeds VERY slow.

Prices might be good, but they limit the speed of your connections. Accept that I should have read all the T&C's but also they shouldn't have shady limits that you wouldn't expect. I moved to this from Frugal thinking it was cheaper, it is so not! Had to upgrade my account to increase the speed to just 5Mb/s, would have been cheaper to stay where I was, which was unlimited speed.

EDIT: It obviously isn't that clear, or I wouldn't be writing this review while being stuck with a sub par new provider for the next 12 months. I've already had to upgrade my plan to Pro to make it usable, but I can guarantee with 1000% certainty that I will not be renewing next year. The only thing you could do at this point to resolve my disappointment would be to refund both my initial subscription, and the cost of adding the Pro subscription so that I can cancel my account and take my business elsewhere.

Hi Jean!

Our website doesn't contain any videos, pictures, or other content. Therefore you need an application (usenet client) like Momentum. See also https://www.xsnews.nl/en-eur/usenet/tutorials.html
