There's a BIG difference in speen SQD.The $29.95 plan allows for 3mbps download and 768kbps upload.The $14.95 plan allows for 768/128.The second plan is way faster than a dial-up connection but much slower than what you already have.

VB when you originally signed up for DSL they must've only offered it in the 768/128 speed you have now.

When I signed up for $29.95 the speed was 1.5/384.Since they now offer 3.0/768 speed for $29.95 I called today and upgraded to the higher speed without increasing my bill.They also offered the slower package for $14.95 if I so desired it.That ain't bad service.

So in the end depending on when you signed up you increase your speed without increasing your bill or slow it up a little and save a few bucks.

I wish I could get it!!

I use Comcast and I left Comcast for Derict TV so now my bill for High Speed is a wopping $60!!!!!!!!!!!!

But Version said I could get it, then they came out and said I am to far away from them and I can't get it.

And I will never go Dial up!! So I am screwed!!

A friend just got the $15 deal from thenm and it seems to be just fine!! For the $29 I hear that they give you a faster speed.
