I'm with BT, unlimited evening and weekends, and 10GB Net.. Got the first three months free (except the line rental)

Now pay, £42 every three months for the package.. so £14 a month, plus £41 every three months for line rental.

But I have yet to have any problems with them. They've been pretty helpful when I've had to ring them.

Virgin just broadband on it's own, I pay £7 a month but I've been with them a while.

Plusnet is supposed to be the cheapest and has good reviews.

Look on www.moneysavingexpert.co.uk it's a brilliant website and always has up to date deals on it for well everything.

does anyone know if there are any good reliable sites to compare internet prices?

I have to say I'm with plus net and whilst at first they seem cheap they just keep putting the prices up :S And the worrying thing is it all adds up. Personally i'd just go for anything but tiscali and expect to pay £30 a month :/ But then I do use alot of internet.... no calls really apart from on a sunday to landlands (family calls! lol)

We had a Virgin Connection but it stayed down so much, it became a total headache. Their engineers told us they couldn't respond earlier than 10 days, etc etc and in the end, we cancelled our contract. Been on Sky since then - they did the installation etc for £19.99 and we pay £20 per month for really good internet and a phone line. We're really happy with their customer service too. This £20 also includes a phone line - which we rarely use- but weekend calls to UK landlines are free.

Like Clairealfie said, money saving expert is a great place to compare prices and performances.
