Just moved house, best broadband/calls combo choice?

A lot of the offers seem much of a much, am thinking bt option 2 for an average broadband package and 'free' off peak calls?
Cost £14 for 6 months, £23 thereafter!
Am assuming this includes line rental also, as I cannot see it as an extra!

Any thoughts or other suggestions please?

    Think again! Those prices exclude line rental, so they are very poor value.

    Why do most people just look at BT when there are hundreds of ISP's to choose from? Have a look at thinkbroadband ispreview dslzone etc.

    If you call AOL and say you are thinking of cancelling then they may reduce 14.99 to 9.99. I just got this
