I personally never use free internet services.
1.They are always unreliable.
2.They have too many banners.
3.Lots of mails .
I would never use the free services provided by AOL or any free service providers.
Eth had a similar model, what happened , lots of hidden charges and I could never get the required bandwidth for the service.
I spent on the telephone services, the bandwidth being small I was spending alot of time on the service.
The emails were unreliable and I could not use the email being unreliable for important mails.
I dont think its a wise choice.
