Customers utilizing this service would subscribe to a free e-mail box service to be used along with the Newroads dial-up account. This service saves the Newroads customer $4 per month on an Unlimited Access package. Newroads Web Hosting services start at only $14.95 per month for the basic service. Customer’s looking for even additional savings can pre-pay their annual Newroads dial-up service account and get 3 months of service free. As an example: This simply means that if a new Newroads customer chooses to pre-pay their unlimited “Access Only” service package account for the year, the customers average monthly charge for this unlimited service package would compute to only $11.96 per month. That’s a great savings.
Applications for the new Internet services are currently being accepted by Newroads.
