Newest Review: ... okay and seemed to be quick and relatively reliable, but oh dear, as portals go the IC24 site was an absolute canine. Atrocious colours... more

Unfortunately IC24 have now finished the 0800 offer - you can now only connect using the 0845 number :-(

I've been using IC24 for quite a few months now. Towards the start I always had engaged tones, but after a while this seemed to improve. I can quite easily connect after 10pm or so which is great for me. Sunday morning seem to be the best of all!

I've signed up to variuos pay-to-surf programs so in other words I get paid to have a free Internet connection.

I use my Orange mobile phone to connect to the Internet as I'm a student and cannot connect from my halls of residence through an ordinary phone line, however, as Orange do not charge for 0800 numbers this means I can research and check my e-mails from my flat.

I would say that IC24 is probably one of the better free ISPs around although it is still not perfect.

Your internet connection speed would be terrible through a mobile phone at around a quarter the speed of a landline. This will all eventually change when 3rd generation phones finally hit the market.
I used to use IC24, when I could connect it was quite good, but I soon got fed up with the intermittent engaged tones and 1HR cut off. The service was always threatening to end, but they keep extending the deadline. I think they are meant to be finishing again the end of this month (January 2001), unless it gets extended yet again. Oh well, it was amazing for FREE.
