Best current FTTC broadband deals and recommended providers

I'm currently have Sky's Fibre Max product and in a bit of a dispute with them as the connection speed has dropped in recent months and they're refusing to do anything about it as it's a legacy product and they'd rather have me on their FTTP products instead. They can clearly see a cap on the connection but they don't want to involve Openreach to do anything about it.

So I'm looking to move and as I've been with Sky for more years than I care to remember I'm a bit out of the game when it comes to good deals and providers. I'm looking for a similar FTTC 60+ Mb/s service with a decent provider, can anyone help?

    You could always use a broadband comparison site, there's plenty of them and there's a link for the MSE one down at the bottom of the page.

    This is presuming that you're not in contract of course.

    I was hoping for some real world experiences, hence why I'm asking here.
