I was with PlusNet for 12 months until the end of June and I didn't  
have any trouble at all from them. The only trouble I ever had was  
caused by BT cutting the line for a few days... Static IP, uncapped,  
with a range of available speeds. Note that you'll always only get  
256 Kbps upstream bandwidth unless you go for SDSL which is very  
expensive.

HTH,
