IBM Global Network

Pros: Gets me access to FREE PORN
Cons: Expensive, slow dial-up

Yeh, I am. It's sad I know. But I signed up for it about 2 years ago and just haven't changed yet. The dial up program is somewhat helpful and easy to use, but you know there's just not a whole lot you can say about that. So lets get on to the good...

Pros: Good service, prompt e-mail, easy to use, fun Web site
Cons: No space for Web pages

IBM's Internet Connection was a shoo-in for one of Best ISPs I had used so far. Using the service was a pleasure. It wasn't the fastest at downloading Web pages and other files, but it was still quick and consistent from hour to hour and day to day....

Pros: Average ISP Package
Cons: Ridiculous Payment and Charges.

I was IBM.NET for around 2 months. The service is ok. The only problem is the monthly hour limit. If you use the internet for your business, or are an Internet Junkie, DO NOT get this service. My first months bill came to $35.70. I was really upset. But...

Pros: Reliable, Best tech support
Cons: 100 hour limit, 10% more expensive than earthlink

What can I say. IBM once had the best internet service available. My work took me all over the US and Canada and most places I stayed IBM Global was a local call away. The speed very good, I always connected on the first try. Tech support was far...

Pros: There are plenty that are worse
Cons: 100-hour limit, mediocre quality of service, used to be so much better

When I switched over to IBM Internet Services from Epoch Networks in 1997 I was concerned. I was leaving behind an ISP which I was actually very happy with in order to take advantage of X2 56Kbps speeds. All turned out well and IBM Internet lived up to...

Pros: Reliable connections, lots of access numbers
Cons: A pale shadow of its former self

I used to work for IBM Global Network, and they went from being the best ISP in the world for anyone who travels, and one of the best for anyone period, to a second rate over priced ISP.
The beauty had been that IBM had access numbers everywhere,...

Pros: Super Reliable Access,great online help
Cons: Not the least expensive no doubt

I chose IBM as an ISP after a move to a location with a new phone exchange.I had to give up my then-provider Netcom as there was no local access number.An IBM set-up file had come bundled with a CIBC on-line banking set-up disk so I gave it a try.

Pros: Good connection
Cons: Charged extra for over 100 hours of use

I was with IBM for about one year. Reliability and service was average and I was content with it but then IBM decided to charge extra for any hours over 100 a month. Since I'm an internet junkie and always go over 100 hours a month, this was unacceptable...

Pros: Worldwide connection, reliable
Cons: Business oriented - not meant for the home user

I have been reading the reviews of IBM global network (Which now belongs to AT&T), As far as I know this is a strictly business service, so any argument about monthly cost is not as relevant - this is targeted towards a different market! Granted, you...

Pros: Fantastic Computer System
Cons: Owned by AT&T

IBM was my favorite provider until they obviously decided to get out of the business. My original opinion would have been "Nobody does it better".
Now it's "Welcome to the Monkey House".

I think that true to their...

Pros: Great Service
Cons: Rather Expensive

If ever there was an anti-AOL ISP, then IBM Global Network would be it.

I would like to rate customer service. I can not. Why? Everything was perfect. No problems. I mean zero, zip, nada, zilch!

I would like to rate technical...

Pros: Cheap, reliable service
Cons: The uncertainty of a new owner

I signed up with IBM a few years ago through an educational promotion they had at the University of Miami. I still get the $12/month rate which makes it a steal for me. So far the transition from IBM to AT&T has been a smooth one as far as I can...
