Just browsing the internet on my lunch break and stumbled across O2 Broadband.
8MB Connection and unlimited downloads for £7.50 a month.
I looked at http://www.thinkbroadband.com and it seems to beat most ISPs out there!
Anyone got any experiences of O2 broadband?

I have inside information.
They are very very good atm.
Only circa 30k customers, looking to be at 600k.
No hard limits at the moment either.
When they reach 600k I have doubts about how good the service will be but I'd say you'll get a year out of them.

Yeah I know - I do.
They also have free 24/7 UK Customer support which IMO is a great.
Think I might go for it.

During the day customer support goes to glasgow, after 11pm it goes down to bury or somewhere.
The top package is a brilliant deal if you can get the 20 meg, if you take that one out and your line can't handle it they'll automatically put the package down for you.

According to their site my line can only handle the bottom package but that doesn't bother me TBH.
It's more than fast enough.
Currently paying £20 a month with a 20GB download limit.

Probably the same as Be because O2 bought them up a while ago.

Im looking into 02 as well, is it cable or phoneline though? We have no use for a landline so seems pointless to be paying more for it a month than broadband

A DSLAM holds just under 800 people, you'd need a good percentage of that for them to install one although there are no official figures given out to the plebs.
They have a spreadsheet with quarter 2 and quarter 3 rollouts.
