its a scam. check out dslreports.com for info on it. There are a few articles on the main page poking at it.

I removed your referral ID.

Note that any offer that seems too good to be true and that offers something free that involves referrals is either screwing you over or going to annoy everybody around you (a la those damn "free" iPod links going around).

Not only that but pyramid schemes in the UK are illegal.

as they are in the US

I am quite surprised to see that a lot of people aren't seeing the pyramid scheme in the ipod deal and evidently, this broadband deal.

Well with the iPod scheme, you don't realise it until your in the final stages when it says go and bid for the 1cent ipod on ebay. I mean if people can get confused by fake emails from people pretending to be banks and such, it's easy to see why they'd get fooled so easily by this :)
