Broadband only deals.

Formerly with O2 I transferred to Sky last year when O2 ceased Internet. My year with Sky is nearly up and they are about to start charging me for broadband.
I already have a prepaid line rental deal with Sky which includes anytime calls so I am looking for a broadband only deal with no line rental. I have not spoken to Sky yet but having looked around it would seem all broadband deals insist on line rental as well. Are there any that do not?

    Yes, but they are relatively expensive.

    Even if you find one, you will still pay towards maintaining the network, whether it's called line rental or not. The line doesn't just give you a phone line - a line is needed for broadband too of course.
    If you can get cable, Virgin offer it, but it's a similar price.
