Review of Madasafish Max Plus Broadband
- 8Mb Madasafish download speeds
- Massive 50GB usage allowance
- Free wireless kit included
- Free static IP address
- Renowned Madasafish customer service
|
MADASAFISH - the only broadband provider to be named after a sea creature with issues - has been quietly ticking along in the background for many, many years now.
Yet it is only recently that Madasafish broadband has been coming to the fore as potential force to be reckoned with in the broadband market.
Plusnet
So much so, in fact, that it was recently snapped up by the Brightview group (ie BT) and merged with Plusnet.
So far, all indications are that Madasafish will continue to operate exactly the same as before, under the same name and with the same excellent service as before.
Boasting a bundle of trophies that would make Kelly Holmes blush, Madasafish is renowned for its superb customer service and reliability, so one can excuse the rather steep price for this Madasafish Max Premier broadband package.
Despite the current 6 month introductory offer which saves a few pounds a month, it is clear that Madasafish is positioning itself as the 'you get what you pay for' broadband provider, as their recent magazine adverts will attest.
50GB usage allowance
The Madasafish Max Premier is the company's flagship product, offering speeds of up to 8Mb with a colossal 50GB usage allowance.
That should be enough even for very heavy web users and is in fact more generous than many 'unlimited' packages when you consider the restrictions in their fair use policies.
Slightly overpriced?
While you get a free wireless networking kit, free static IP address and enjoy Madasafish's excellent customer service, we wonder whether Madasafish Max Premier broadband is perhaps just a little overpriced for home users?
The answer to that will depend on how important you consider reliability and peace of mind to be.
