You can sign on any PC and earn bandwidth. So I have this cunning plan to 'pay' the kids to watch adverts while I reap the credit....

Might be cheaper to pay for BB though.....

OK. first thoughts are, it's quite a good idea for an emergency backup.

Looks like the max credit you can earn is about 75 Mb.
Hardly enough to keep me going for a day's surfing, let alone email etc.
There's also a limit at the moment as to how many ads there are for you to look at. That could be that I only ticked a few of the 'what are you interested in' boxes.
Once you've seen an ad, it disappears, though you can watch it again when you log back in after a certain time.
This means it's taken a couple of sessions to top my credit level up.

However, it's a good backup when I only want to to look something up in a hurry and not spend out more.

You can also top up credit with cash (£3.50 for 250Mb or £5 for 500Mb lasting a month) and these rates are not bad for PAYG anyway, certainly cheaper than BT wifi prices.

Quick update,

I've got about 250 Mb credit. More than enough for a days normal use, provided I don't go stupid and stay away from youtube....

At present I can top up about 100Mb a day by clicking on the ads. I do this simply by clicking the next ad when I wander past the PC, or while I'm wading through the junk mail etc.
The amount of credit given per ad seems to either vary or gone up.
Fairly easy to keep up.

Even if you run out of ads, a couple of hours later, they seem to respawn.
Watching the ads while on the mobile connection, doesn't seem to use the credit either.

The connection is stable enough at work, 3.8Mb speed.

On the whole, I'm quite impressed.
