I know that you can get more than your 2 hours at a time, ive had 12 hours at once, a problem they have not fixed yet, thank goodness.

But ive been on after 12 on a Sunday night, it does not disconnect, i always do that just in case they charge, they dont seem to.

If you try to connect after 12, no way, what im wondering is if i just stay on all the time, and dont disconnect, what would happen.

Your modem would get very warm, overheat and result in a mass nuclear meltdown killing thousands of innocent bunny rabbits.

As soon as the clock strikes midnight on Sunday/Monday your call is charged at local rate. Bummer, huh? I find that you can stay on for long times sometimes (I find when I have not been using much bandwidth)

There are no charges. They cannot charge you on an 0800 number. It just sometimes takes a while for the janitor to wander along and switch it off on a Monday morning http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/teeth.gif
