No Money Saved With Dialup
Why would money be a factor to going back to dialup? You still have to pay for the landline phone and the ISP account. In most situations the combined cost of those are more than broadband. -- Blagojevich / Madoff 2012!
Where dsl or cable is available you could get a bottom tier broadband along with a voip service for less than the cost of dial-up and landline. You'd have a faster connection and virtually unlimited calling for less money.

That's what eventually got me to switch. I did the math and realized the cost of my second phone line plus the cost of having dialup was a little bit more than what I'd be paying for cable.
I was paying $67.00/Mo for POTS and DSL. I dropped the POTS, and got Dry Loop DSL for $19.99/Mo. Moved the Landline # to my CELL, which is all I ever used for voice anyway.
Much cheaper all in all! Can't see anyone going to dialup, at least not for financial reasons.
