Just been to the Tiscali loyalty site to check on this months bargains .Anyone who has or may of had in the past used Tiscali as there ISP will know what I mean .I haven't used them for years but have still kept my loyalty site number and have bought many things from them . Anyway I just checked and guess what there letting you have for nowt .........[you do pay £2.99 postage & packing for each item] .......but still ,I think these are bargains , even if there a bit old now:

Items are free , but there is a £2.99 postage & packing fee per item .

Is this a bargain or what ??

I would never deal with Tiscali. They allowed my 85 year old mother in law to get in credit by about £900 with them as their bills are totally ambiguous and then put obstacles in the way when I tried to recover these overpayments on her behalf. Eventually I used the consumer programme on our local radio station to get a repayment for her.

But no written apology, no offer of compensation. and no interest offered..

Their problem is their communication system and of course it is a premium 0870 number.....

I too dont like Tiscali , I'm not with them now but kept my e-mail account with them ,all I get is SPAM .But ,the software deals were not directly from Tiscali , only a loyalty deal with someone else .A bit like the loyalty points you get when buying from BP , Argos ,etc. Still , it's still a very good deal , especially for a newcomer to vid editing and computing who cannot afford the expensive software . Actually I use Pinnacle 9 myself , it's excellent but I paid more than £2.99 for it .I might buy a few myself and pass them on ,You would not get software like this at *C*orld for £2.99 each.
