CallNet has said that it will not continue its unmetered
internet service. The company launched its service in November,
making it one of the first ISPs in the unmetered internet access
market.08 Aug 2000
The company said yesterday: “CallNet’s decision to terminate the 0800 services is due to changes within the dynamic telecoms industry and new service preferences of UK internet users.” The company now plans to introduce a 2p per minute peak, 1p per minute off-peak charge.
Last month, LineOne took the decision to cancel its unmetered service. Another ISP, Breathe, recently removed 500 users from its unmetered service because they were overusing the service to the detriment of other users.
