where to find a cheap internet supplier

hi i have moved into a flat and have no internet access. there's no landline either but i don't really need that for now.

i am looking for cheap unlimited internet. orange seem to have cheaper prices but i don't think they are so reliable. i have used talktalk in the past in another city i lived in with my parents which was quite good.

i don't mind getting landline if it reduces the cost of internet but i do want unlimited internet, and a reliable internet provider. where should i look first?

    Put your post code into here, then look for LLU suppliers.

    I've searched and the results are:

    The following table details the availability of LLU services at your location.

    AOL is available in your area
    O2 / Be Unlimited is available in your area
    Bulldog (C&W) is available in your area
    TalkTalk (CPW) is available in your area
    Sky Broadband / Easynet is available in your area
    Tiscali is available in your area
    Tiscali TV is available in your area
    Orange is available in your area

    I'm not sure which one to go look into more? Do I have to get a line rental with it? Don't really want to spend more than £10 a month.

    You need a land line in order to get broadband from any supplier.

    The only option you have to have internet access on it's own would be virgin media (i.e. cable)
