Short-term BB supplier required
 
I have some friends whose landlord, eager to 'get with the times', is willing to pay for the set-up and infrastucture costs (router, etc) for broadband in their shared house, leaving my friends to share the monthly bills between them.

The only problem is that they're students, and so are only likely to be living in the house for about 3 months.

So to cut to the chase, are there any good ADSL suppliers out there who *don't* tie you in to a 12-month contract? I've had a brief look, and it seems to me that at the moment they're selling ADSL like mobile phones: the set-up costs are absorbed into the monthly payments, with a 12 month lock-in. I'm after the opposite: low monthly payments, no lock-in (or at least, no more than 3 months), and the set-up costs don't really matter.

Can anybody help me (and my friends) out?

Thanks in advance,

Tristan

I thought most of the ADSL suppliers did one or three month contracts.

Most ADSL suppliers don't use 12 month contracts now.

dialupisp 1 month Digitalserve 1 month
Eclipse 1 month
