Usenet server?

 I'm seriously thinking of changing Usenet servers from Individual Net to
???.

Click & Buy, who handles their payments, is very awkward to deal with.
Mostly the slowest server on the net! About five minutes to change screens
via dialup. Closer to ten to log in and out. Not just recently - the past
few years. Doesn't recognize My DLed Flash, which I got expecially to
speed up their site. Very annoying. So need another Usenet server without
C&B. Suggestions? Too bad, Individual is an otherwise excellent provider.

Thanks.

Free.  No binaries.  Good retention.  Fast.  Sign up at the website and
use your newsreader from then on.

I hate Click & Buy too. No need to use them to pay for Individual.net.

You can pay through Pay Pal, without opening a Pay Pal account. I don't
like Pay Pal either, but as long as you don't open an account with them,
it is no different than any other credit card transaction.
