I'm concerned that I can't get an accurate estimate because I haven't signed up for a phone line - but if I sign up for a phone line and can't get adequate speed then I wouldn't have signed up for one in the first place!
BT are full of red tape, there is always a catch to there offers and they usually end up at a miserable dead end of having to pay more money or put up with poor service.

Currently there is an offer for unlimited broadband and unlimited calls for £16 per month, that is not including £13.99 line rental which makes it £29 and Virgin Media are offering something similar for £28 and TalkTalk offer that for about £27 per month. Therefore, comparing by price, there isn't much difference, but comparing reliability is another thing which you need to look at. Currently Virgin Broadband has been rated the fastest in the UK by Ofcom, i've had experience of BT before and there technical support isn't very good
