re: inquiring about an ISP that seems to have good rates
....however.....caveat emptor
Hi <^ojo^>
We would be VERY interested in hearing feedback from
anyone who knows somethiing about JPS.net
headquartered in Sacramento, and operating in
most of California and in several other states.
Their phone: 1-800-711-5353
We are lured by their offer: $89 (plus $25 connection fee)
the first year, and $99 subsequent years -- account
comes with 20 MB Web space. The $114 first year must be
paid in one payment.
Needless to say, when I phoned them, they painted
a very rosy picture of themselves.
Backbone: They have one T3, two T1 and one T2 (I believe).
I believe their Web site is at: http://www.jps.net
I understand that there is a 10-day refund period, but I
don't know if that includes the $25 one-time connection
fee.
They checked and confirmed that they have dial-up numbers
that are local to me -- I'm in the Downey-Long Beach area of
Los Angeles County.
Of course, they said they receive no complaints from users
unable to log on easily.
Well...just curious to know if anyone has any information
to share about JPS.net or any other ISP with competitive
prices.
I note that AOL, at $22 a month (I just heard there will
be a $2 increase), comes to about $264 a year
Also, I am wondering what else there is out there by
way of competition for JPS.net...?
Thanks so much in advance.
Robert
