Anyone know of a service (in London) where you can pay by the hour (or whatever) for unlimited use of a T1 internet connection?
Like an internet cafe, but for people who need to transfer rude amounts of data quickly.

We just need to do it. I'm not gonna bother explaining why.
Simply put, we need to transfer about 1 terabyte about every two weeks. Biking it to the data centre is what we're trying to avoid.
We could pay for our own fibre - but that seems drastic. We'd rather use someone else's, and pay for that service if indeed it exists.

Back in the dial-up days, you'd use someplace like kall-kwik to use ISDN.
We need the modern day equivalent...

i know of several services here in the US that will allow for scheduled, determined bursts of bandwidth allowances; this is a sort of 'common' service for major email/web campaigns i know. not sure of any in the UK though, sorry.
