Adran,(posted 8649 days ago)The problem you have with the brown tint is not a problem with the film (well it is, but I'll leave my personal opinions to myself). Assuming you used Ilford XP2 or Kodak T400CN (not Kodak Black & White + 400), you can have your pictures printed on a "true" B&W paper and get the neutral tones you are looking for. You will need to look for a lab that makes custom B&W prints (this is option 2 in Wolfram's response).
As has been pointed out, this is not the best alternative (unless you are only looking for snap shots to put in a photo album). If you are serious about B&W photography and plan on shooting a lot of B&W, you would be wise to take Robert's advice and 1) use the right tools and 2) learn to develop/print your own. Many of the colleges offer courses in photography, including B&W darkroom courses, and they have darkrooms for you (if you are a student of the course) to use.
