Cable Forum - View Single Post - Best UK Unlimited Broadband?

We've been with Virgin Media for around eight years now, and I think it's time to change. We're currently on a package deal for the Phone, TV and Internet, but my family are wanting to get rid of both the Phone and TV parts of the package. I've offered to pay the broadband costs myself, but am thinking of switching providers.

I've taken a look around the net and am finding the deals very confusing. There's a lot of hidden costs; they advertise low prices on their main page, but when you look into it, there's a tonne of hidden fees. O2 and Talk Talk are two I have been looking at, but O2's costs more than what we're paying now (after the first few months) and Talk Talk has capped broadband. I really don't want limited broadband (since I play games online and there are quite a few online devices in this house.) Fair usage policy is fine though. I've also been looking into Fibre Optic, though apparently (by Talk Talk at least) it isn't available in our area...

So I put it to you Cable users living in the UK! In your honest opinions, what is the best Unlimited broadband service available and what experiences have you had with the service (if any?)

(Also, I apologise if this has been posted in the wrong section.)
