Freedom2Surf has come up with a seasonal gift for someone, a 2Mbps connection for £14.99!

It's Freedom2surf Lightening Connect Lite package has been extended to include the faster connection, which until now was only available on speeds up to 1Mbps. The catch is that there is only 1GB of data transfer per month, although additional allowance can be bought for £2.99 per GB. Another option is the 'non lite' package which comes with 5GB as standard, although this costs £19.99 per month.
Although if you are a night surfer, you won't pay for any bandwidth between 1am and 6am, which is an interesting idea. As is the fact that a 512Kbps connection costs the same as 1Mbps or 2Mbps, why anyone would choose for the lower speed is not sure!!

There is a £49.99 activation charge, but the package includes 50MB of webspace and 20 email addresses.
