Best value-for-money ISP for ADSL?

Sara · July 31, 2006, 11:15:08 AM

As subject really.

Moving into a house of 5 in the coming month - were not really heavy duty leechers, but think that it might be worth going uncapped as making sure we dont exceed about 40GB between us is going to be hard, I think.

Any suggestions? Dont need any more than the pure broadband service really - no emails/domains/webspace/phone deals etc.

Thanks!

Telewest?

go for thr 4Gb line, telephone and basic TV and itll cost you @Ã,Â£45 a month between you.

UKonline. 1Mb BB for 9.99 no caps.

still broadband, with no limits, and not at the mercy of BTs Charging scheme

But at the mercy of whether TW/NTL/ Virgin communications can be arsed to cable up your street.

Or whether the landlord allows it to be installed into your rented house.

i am happy with tiscali atm, upto 8mb unlimited @ Ã,Â£14.99

Plusnet are good

They do have caps mind except for the top end one.

Mind you, im a hefty user and im nowhere near the now 20gb peaktime cap. 1 month I used 4 GB at those hours.

(used to be a 15gb cap for Ã,Â£21.99 a month, but theyve upgraded me to a 20gb cap for the same price due to increased capacity

)

Yup, still a good deal on the Ã,Â£17.99. And a decent fair use policy too.

Wouldnt touch Tiscali for gaming though.

Tiscali have just been totally dissed at another forum for being really awful

Almost tempted to have done with it and go for Talk Talk. Arrgh!

Tiscali are renowned for being poor.

Cancellations, Mac Codes, and Customer service is all rated poorly with tiscali.

Id say chuff it and go with plusnet

lol. Best package they do is uncapped, and traffic filtering has yet to adversely affect me

Either that, or have a look at http://www.adslguide.org.uk
