Nildram yesterday launched a new 2Mbps service, "Broadband 2gO" (Broadband "to go"), a service lining up with the ISPs existing "Pay as you Go" services, a concept offering broadband services as cheap as possible, but with limited usage.

The service costs just £17.99 per month, which itself is a pretty decent headline grabbing figure, however 2gO is capped at just 1GB per month with additional bandwidth charged at £1.75 per GigaByte, although with a minimum 2GB purchase. Worryingly at the time of writting this article there's no mention on the Nildram website about any price capping on this product which if not just a mistake could lead to some very expensive monthly broadband bills.

Nildram cite the service is perfect for occasional users needing fast connections, but who actually download very little over the course of a month. Converts to broadband from dialup could find services like 2g0 expensive given the low inclusive bandwidth offered, as many users when first exposed to broadband find they do lots of downloading just to "experience" what broadband speeds can offer.

The service comes with a respectable 30 day minimum contract for those who do not like agreeing to a full year, and a setup fee of £58.75 applies to all, whilst migration from another broadband ISP comes free of charge.
