    BT Midband to cost £35 a month

    BT's "midband" service - a 128k Net access product based on ISDN and aimed at people who can't get broadband - is to cost significantly more and do even less than the telco's entry-level ADSL service.

    When details of BT Midband were first raised in November last year it was suggested that the service would cost around £25-£30 a month - the same(ish) as existing BT's ADSL services.

    But documents seen by The Register reveal that BT Midband is to cost £35 a month and limit users to up to 150 hours online a month.

    The service goes live on June 1. BT is expected to make a formal announcement about BT Midband later this week.

    That seems to include ISDN line rental already in the price though, as far as I could tell? It's better than anything we have here if you can not get ADSL, but people in the UK must be pretty pissed off considering how poorly it compares to their cheap uncapped ADSL.
