Broadband Help (UK)

    My contract with Homecall is coming to a delightful close and while maybe not the worst broadband provider I've had, they haven't exactly been amazing.

    After going through a lot of contracts online, I was wondering if people could give me their preferred broadband providers in the UK. Preferably I'm after something thats unlimited and doesn't throttle P2P downloads too badly (I've had a look around and I have a feeling that they all nearly do).

    Price isn't factor here, just download limits and speeds :) Any help would be deeply appreciated!

    Go with virgin media. This is a screenshot of my traffic stats.

    Bear in mind my housemate is a much more intense user.

    PS. I am on 20Mbit package.

    I'm using Talk Talk (AKA Opel Telecom) on their £20 per month all in package - 40 GB download limit (8 meg speed), but they aren't too strict about that. They've picked up their game over the last 6 months and I'm quite happy with them.

    Thats nearly an identical set up to what I'll have, so I may have to seriously consider it. Cheers for the help :)
