Uncapped broadband?

Options
Hi all,
Does anybody know of any completely uncapped broadband services? I was with BT 'unlimited' but they reduce your speed to 1mb as soon as you go over 100gb. There are two of us sharing internet here and we're both heavy users so we probably need at least 300gb per month.
Any advice?

Thanks

  • There's loads around, but you do usually have to pay more for a good service.

    These

    are who I am currently with. Have had no problems at all with the service, never slows down in the evening etc.

    When I joined I could use my own router, for some insane reason though they now insist you have to buy their recommended router for £50. Cant fault the connection though. If you go for their top package, you get a free domainname. Only take it if you don't want to keep it when you leave as they charge a whopping £75 to transfer it if you do leave (bearing in mind you can get a domainname for £2.99 per year from elsewhere)

    I know what I've posted above sounds negative about them, but I've been with them for 18 months on their top service and receive 13 - 14 mbps 24/7 with zero slowdown at night (with daughter on laptop on MSN etc, wife on laptop, son playing on his 360 online with his friends and me on my PC).

    Wouldn't hesitate to return to them. Only left as I've got a virgin deal with their 50mb cable BB as part of my new TV,phone and BB package.
