You'll have to be a bit more specific than that. It's a bit like asking what is the cheapest car.
First I would suggest you find out what is available in the area you want it for. Try samknows.

Depends what you mean.
If you're talking about FTTC pricing, then there are numerous websites, this one including offering price comparrisons. I'm not doing the work for you.
If you mean FTTP, it depends who has laid the fibre to your home.
Then you have Virgin, who have their own pricing as no other suppliers use their network.0 -

You need to go onto a comparison website and decide for yourself.
Different ISP's have differing levels of customer support.
Some offer email, online storage, anti virus etc all of which play a part in the cost of their service.
You need to do a bit of research and decide which is best for YOU.0 -
It's virgin provides it to my house, but origin use them and can give me a better price.
Still don't know why virgin don't undercut them
Origin now offer upto 40/10 fibre speeds.

Not quite.
If you're on Origin, you're using Openreach's Fibre to the cabinet network.
No one resells using Virgin's network. Only Virgin supply over their own network.
So you currently have FTTC. You need to compare what you have with what other ISP's using Openreach's FTTC network have to offer.0
