Has Nutshell bitten off more than they could chew? After searching for a reasonably inexpensive unmetered i.s.p. that I could use without having a B.T. line, I decided to plump for Nutshell. After all, some friends were using this i.s.p. with no probs, and recommended it to me as a good service. I signed up for 3 months, but almost immediatley had regrets.

I was then one of the people who signed up for the amazing Bigbluesky offer of £25 for 24/7 free access. I'm sure if you read a lot of opinions on that company then you'll realize that it's a complete fiasco. Net in a Nutshell however saw an opportunity and offered the conned individuals like myself a way out of our internet connection rut. I was offered 24/7 free access for ...  Read the complete review
