Avoid PlusNet...like the plague...totally...believe me!
If you don't believe me, check out the recent bad feedback on here......since they've become a PLC, instead of a LTD, it looks like they've started to think about the happiness of their shareholders more than the happiness of their customers.
Have a look at the "List" and "Compare" links on the above site, and you should be able to choose an ISP that suits your needs (ie. one without harsh limits/caps/fair-usage-policies, if you're going to be downloading a sizeable amount).
And have a read through the various (many) forums on the "Message Boards" on there, for info on whichever ISPs you get down to a shortlist...

Definately not Keysurf. They have a monopoly on our halls, we cannot use a different ISP
