IC24 Reviews

Well, today is my last day with World online free evening and weekends internet calls- offer will be closed from 11/10/00. It is very sad. So, searching for new ISP with similar options, I've found ic24. It is not as good as that offer from World on-line, but- it is really free and you don't need to change your current ...  Read the complete review

I thought I'd sign-up with ic24 since there offer for free access, and no call charges (at certain times) seemed appealing. Especially since my recent 24/7 freephone net. access offer expired, and until I'm onto a BT SurfTime offer (and get reconnected to BT in about a week) this seemed the only way I'm able to save some extra pennies ...  Read the complete review

I signed up for IC24 (with free phone calls) about a month ago, and haven't really used it that much since, as I can't often connect to it. However when I have managed to connect, it has been fast, and reliable, though you do get booted off after an hour. The best times to use it are about 11pm during the week, and then in the ...  Read the complete review

ic24 offer 0800 Internet access from 8pm - midnight on weekdays, and from 9am - 5pm at the weekend. The lines are always very busy on the 0800 numbers, and they will disconnect you after 60 minutes. However, it is free, and as far as I know its the only way to get completely free Internet access without changing your telephone provider. ...  Read the complete review

The offer from IC24 for free access from 8pm to midnight was probably a good marketing ploy but in reality not beneficial to internet users as a whole. We have had the ic24 disc for a while and signed up for free access when it became available, since then we have mainly still had to log on and pay for the calls as there isnt the capability to ...  Read the complete review

I cant think of any completely free ISP's, but IC24 comes closest to making it. Currently from 9am-5pm weekends, and 8pm-12midnight weekdays the service is entirely free. Although it is busy at times, especially 8-10pm weekdays and most of Sundays, normally its ok to start the computer dialling, and it will connect after a few ...  Read the complete review

I was introduced to IC24 after my free internet with Lineone had run out. I had heard lots of rumours about it from friends and family but I never really thought about giving it a go myself. I tried it for the first time on the weekend. After about three failed connections I finally got connected and I have to say that I am impressed by ...  Read the complete review

I have been using IC24 for the last month or so and I have been reasonably impressed so far. IC24 are currently offering access on an 0800 number between 8pm and 12pm during the week and 12pm to 5pm at the weekends, although you are disconnected after an hour. Surprisingly for a free service I usually manage to get a connection afer a few minutes ...  Read the complete review

I was a bit wary of downloading and installing yet another isp that promises to save you money. My previous experiences of such wonderful promises had been, to say the least, disappointing. Inspite of all my reservations I tried ic24 and I'm glad I did. It can save up to 32 hours of internet phone call time per week as it is now ...  Read the complete review

In the hunt for a replacement for the irreplaceable Line One deal I have struggled reaching a decision. Should I go for World Online and change my telephone company? Should I lay out £89.99 for TFI ? It is a minefield out there and is changing by the hour. I eventually registered for NTL which have said it could take ...  Read the complete review

I think ic24 is a very good Isp, although it can be hard to connect at the free times and is often slightly slow. But it is completely free all the time apart from your phone calls and now for 36 hours a week even the phone calls are free. Now however slow it is, this is a good offer bearing in mind you don't pay a penny. The offer supposedly ...  Read the complete review

IC24 isn't an amazing ISP, I would never use it as my main ISP, (simply because it takes an eternity to connect). I signed up for it because it offers free evenings and weekends with no monthly charges or startup fees. Although the hours are slightly different from Surftime; from 8-12pm weekdays and from 9am-5pm on Saturday and Sundays. I ...  Read the complete review

Totally free access to the Internet for a limited time, how do IC24 do it? No connection charge, no per minute rate, no calling charge, nothing. The time you can use IC24’s totally free service is limited to: 8pm - midnight, Monday – Friday 9am – 5pm, Saturday – Sunday IC24 have a one-hour ...  Read the complete review

I signed up for IC24 because I wanted to get free Internet calls on weekday evenings, for me this was the only attraction as I already have two ISPs that I use (lineone & force 9). However, the online signup procedure is riddled with bugs that it became impossible to continue so I requested they send me a disk – which of course they did. On ...  Read the complete review

I began using IC24 when unmetered access first came about in the UK. Alongisde X-Stream, this service provided access initially from 9am-5pm on Sundays. This has been extended to saturday as well as 8am-12pm every weeknight. As an ISP, they offer the standard facilities, e-mail, webspace and newsgroup access, with a 0845 number available ...  Read the complete review

I decided to give IC24 a go as it is being advertised at present as a completly free service after 8pm weekdays & between 9am - 5pm weekends. The ads on the TV are very persuasive. I tracked down a CD at my local garage & was given 5 for some unknown reason. My main objective was a back up for my usual ISP. The CD was easy enough to use & ...  Read the complete review

ic24 can be described as a "part time ISP who only works the hour's it wants too". ic24 is very unreliable - with problems encounted more-or-less on a daily basis; unable to send or receive e-mail, unable to upload files to my web site (hosted by ic24) - it has even "lost" files which I've uploaded, if you can ...  Read the complete review

When I first saw the adverts for IC24 I have to say I was very sceptical to say the least ,after all you dont get something for nothing do you. I decided to give it a try as paying £9.99 + 1p per minute for AOL works out rather expensive and I never use any of ther content anyway so I duley visted the IC24 site and ordered my CD ...  Read the complete review

Well I have to say that IC24 are one of the most reliable ISPs I have used (and I have used a fair number of them) Not only is it fast in comparison with larger, better known ISPs such as Freeserve, it also offers free time online EVERY DAY - COMPLETLY FREE!!!! I use IC24 all the time now... with little use of my other ISPs. ...  Read the complete review
