About AOL
AOL Broadband offer landline telephone services as well as broadband services (up to 24mb download speed). All AOL Broadband deals have a monthly download limit of 10GB, and with 18 month contracts.
However AOL also has some of the very lowest rates going, and if you’re a causal internet user who’ll be sticking around for awhile, an 18 month contract with AOL could very well be the cheapest broadband deal for you.
Best Bits
AOL Broadband are currently offering one month’s free subscription and line rental (worth £20.30) when you sign up to their calls/broadband/line rental package online. This might already sound like a great deal but it gets better.
AOL’s standard monthly tariff is one of the lowest on the market, so you’ll be paying only £7.10 mth for broadband and evening/weekend calls to UK landlines.
This means that you can make some really quite substantial savings in the long-term as well as the short-term!
Slow interent speeds that can be very very slow on times, if you even use the internet at non-peek times it is still as slow as the peek, really unhappy with my internet connection but is still very basic for facebook but not enough for xbox live gaming...

AOL MISLEADING PEOPLE 1
I Have been with AOL for over 9 years and pay the broadband only package at £15.31 per month (high cost for a loyal customer) Anyway last week I got a call from AOL CS Team to inform me "because I was a Loyal customer they would reduce my monthly rental to £9.99 a month. So I decided to sign up for 18 months at £9.99. I got an email to confirm the change but instead of £9.99 they were charging me £19.41 oh less £2 for loyalty...so now I am paying £17.41 a month, or £2.09 a month more. I phoned them up 9thats cost me calling them as well) and NO APOLOGY from them. I could go on but best thing I have done is getting my MAC code from AOL and going to move from the MISLEADING AOL COMPANY...if thats how they tread loyalty? AOL = Any Old Liars

Happy With AOL 4
I have been with AOL for about 5 years, and the only time my broadband went down is when there was a problem with the exchange. I found this out by contacting AOL, within hours it was up and running again. Also I have found customer and technical service excellent. Aol is much better than my friends service providers, they are always having problems?

Connection can be lost on occasions, necessitating a system re-boot. Processing speed can be painfully slow at times, even on AOL Silver.

A bit more about AOL
AOL broadband in the UK is, unsurprisingly, formerly owned by US broadband giant AOL (America Online). In 2006 The Carphone Warehouse took over AOL’s UK operations, whilst keeping the AOL brand and continuing to provide portal content for AOL broadband subscribers in the UK.
In 2010 when Carphone Warhouse subsidiary Talk Talk demerged and became a standalone company, AOL UK also demerged and continued trading as a subsidiary of the Talk Talk Telecom Group PLC.
