What is the cheapest unlimited internet if speed not a issue

I was just wondering, I need something that is unlimited like teksavvy 512/512 service that used to be unlimited for $25 a month. As you can see speed for me is not an issue but I need unlimited bandwidth.

You can only transfer ~150GB/month at that speed, which is only about half the cap many 3rd-party ISPs have, though at $30-35/month.

Since usage will cost ISPs an average of ~$0.12/GB with capacity-based billing, you aren't likely to find more than 30-40GB/month (+ off-peak) at the $25 price point.

No there are some unlimited 5 Mbps / 800 kbps plans starting at $29/month.

Slower 640 kbps plans arround $25 probably still exist, but I don't think they are worth it.

Don't forget, those price are for the first years only like zorxd said if you pay for the whole year in advance.

They gonna renew it automatically so you have to contact them if you decide not to stay with them.

Yup, it's Acanac. I've been using them for a little over 3 years in Kitchener, Ontario and have only ever had one problem for which I was generously reimbursed.

Acanac gets a lot of crap in this forum and I'm not really sure why. I've heard their Cable internet is not that great, but I'm on the DSL package Lynn was talking above and it's wonderful. Real true unlimited which is hard as hell to get these days. Very reasonable prices as well, even once the promo year is over.

I highly recommend them.
