    Plusnet is one of the few of them (or maybe the only one). I've been with them for over two years but I've only been bankrupt for 6 months, when I renewed a few weeks ago it went through without a problem but this is due to them never doing credit checks from what I've found out.

    I pay £34 a month for the highest package and that includes line rental too.

    As LEK says above, Plusnet is an option.

    Tentel are worth looking at.

    TalkTalk accepted me as an undischarged bankrupt with a £25 deposit (came back on my first bill)

    You could always look at BT Basic also.
