Advantages: Cheap Dial up service good service and easy to use interface

Disadvantages: The software ewasnt easy to uninstall cancellations based in India

Before Broadband I used the AOL dial up service which was 14.99 a month and gave you unlimited access to there services. A number of years ago AOL were my preferred dial up service of choice yes there were a few pounds more expensive than other unlimited providers but you had the added extra of a free technical support line and British call centres if you had an issues for example Chat was fun and the whole package made the fee quite reasonable.

There was also the added benefit of if you wanted to cancel you spoke to cancellations and as they worked on commission would offer you a free month and you just called back a number of times before you signed up again using another credit card.
At the time of sign up AOL were offering 100 air miles to each new customer so it was possible to acre hundreds of air miles.

I left AOL once Broadband with Telewest became available
I always found the customer service to be good and I was usually pleased by the quickness and efficiency of there customer service agents when I had a problem. The only issue was if you ever wanted to reinstall the AOL software completely it was quite difficult and would always leave traces in the registry and other areas of the computer
In conclusion AOL was a good provider of its time which has been taken over by Virgin and other ISP s Its worth try to see if you would like the user friendly interface that is AOL and i'm sure it would suit a lot of people just not me

Summary: AOL was great in its day friendly interface worth a look not sure about the broadband though
