Blacklisted as spam ip was the reason. Trouble is my ip is dynamic and changes. They want £10 per month for a static ip though!
Are you sure? My parents are with PlusNet and last time I checked it was £5 for a static IP, but AFAIR it was a one-off fee. I was still determined not to pay it because it just seems like handing over money for someone to click a mouse button once and change the setting.
It's a little more then a single click - you would be assigned a different range, they might even have to create a whois entry.
Plusnet is most likely also paying to be a RIPE NCC member (a LIR), which will cost them about EUR1400/annum. £5 for a static IP, one-off - that's entirely reasonable. Even 5/month.
I should add - for fixed IPv4. For fixed IPv6, a setup fee would be okay. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (13.4°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
