    I have signed up to a couple and then have had to cancel them because they are sooooo shite.

    Can any one recommend a server for me as Bt's server in heavily censored and sucks

    ive been using newshosting for a while now, i know theres cheaper but it always max's out my connection and never had a problem as yet. I think when it comes to newsgroups ya pay for what ya get - that and they take electron as a form of payment

    I second newshosting, been with them since January, never had any problems, unlimited downloads for £8 a month, up to 8 continuous connections (although it says 4 on the faq page) and 24 day retention (soon to be increased) checkout www.newshosting.com

    i use newshosting as above and www.anonynews.com which is slightly poorer service (in terms of retention) and slightly more expensive but with 3 server farms and an anon posting server (for those who want to post) it does have some advantages
