FlashByte Comparison To Other Internet Services

All FlashByte packages include:

  • Unlimited data transfer.  This means there is no cap on the amount of downloads you can make or movies you can watch or games you can play or time you can spend on skype with your family and friends.  There will never be an extra fee because you used your FlashByte connection too much.
  • Free web hosting and email services.  Each FlashByte account includes access to a full service web hosting and email system.  The number of email accounts that are included with each package vary and they can be created and managed through your control panel interface.
  • No long term contracts or commitments.  Even our discounts for longer term billing options can always be changed back to monthly billing without large fees (see TOS for details).

 

Here are some of the key benefits in comparison to various other options:
