End of ngUK 24/7

• NetGamesUK have just announced their unfortunate decision to end their 0800 dial up access. It will be finished within two weeks for anyone that currently uses it. Andy Jones, ngUK Managing Director:

  “Whilst the 0800 has proved popular, our statistics prove the vast majority of our subscribers are not in fact on-line gamers using the NGUK gaming service. We receive little revenue directly related to the 20,000 gamers playing on our network, and are prevented from making long term investment in developing the service as a result.”

  They wanted to finish it up before too many people signed up and the base got even larger than now. They're now looking at trying to "provide a low cost pay-per-play option in the next few months".
