Is there an viable options available to me for internet without a phone line?
I am a heavy internet user with lots of downloading etc so a dongle is not really viable.
Any Ideas?

that'll be no then

lots of downloading = decent wired(or cabled) isp
virgin media cable may be able to supply wires only, if available in your areaUtinam logica falsa tuam philosophiam totam suffodiant.0 -
There is such a thing as satellite internet, but I think it's really expensive and aimed at companies rather than individuals.0

You can buy internet sticks through some companies. Orange and vodafone do off the top of my head. You can have monthly contract or payg.
Not sure if that helps0 -
