I do like this metronet scheme though. Between 200 meg and 5 gig, you only pay for the bandwith you use (which means that you only pay 10 quid (plus vat) if you're away for a month). Once you hit 5 Gig, you're on a flat rate (without a cap), and the price is quite similar to what NTL charge. So, it's very flexible, and cost-aware customers can decide to do all their big downloads, p2p in one month, and cut on the price in the other months... In the months you use a lot of bandwidth, you pay NTL prices, if you use less then 5 Gig, you pay less...
And, I noticed, the minimum contract is for three months only...
I don't know how good they are, but I like their business model
