AOL UK has cut the ribbon on its new 1Mb DSL broadband service. Several broadband customers trialled the higher-speed service for two months and AOL UK reckons the feedback has so far been positive. But at £34.99 a month, the new service costs more than some other 1Mb services on the market. To get that price, punters will have to sign up to a year's contract and ensure they get their order in before the end of January. As part of the offer AOL covers the cost of upgrading to the faster service.
However, the £34.99 price is a promo price and is only fixed for people who sign up by the end of January. AOL has yet to decide the price for the service from February 1 2004.
