Cheap provider with short minimum contract

Hi all

My girly is moving to a new house next month but will only be living there for 6 months.

I am therefore looking for a broadband provider who will have a short minimum contract period.

So far I have checked:
Nildram
Tesco
Wanadoo
BT
ntl
Telewest
Pipex
Metronet

The only two that offer short contracts are metronet and pipex. She is looking for the cheapest possible 512k service, and a 2gig or more cap would be handy. The Pipex Solo 500 Lite has a 1gig cap which isn't really enough, so total cost would work out at £22.04 a month after paying for the extra bandwidth.

Metronet is cheaper on PAYG and this is the provider that she has already, but the problem is they would charge a £59 activation fee, so the monthly cost over 6 months will effectively increase by £10 a month.

Has anyone got recommendations for a cheap contract that will allow a short contract? Equipment is not a problem as we already have that, and i'm not bothered about the quality/ cost of their technical support.

TIA
