    I use Trooli broadband and would recommend them. They offer a refer-a-friend if you know anyone with an account.
    But you'll need to check what's available where you are.

    Most ISPs offer broadband without a phone line nowadays (even Virgin Media).

    I have Virgin without phone. I don’t have much choice though as the people who built this bungalow had Virgin fibre connected, but OpenReach have no line of site from the nearby pole.

    I just set my parents up with Vodafone gigacube mobile BB (not standard Vodafone BB). Seems to work well for their needs.

    Plusnet have been good for us - especially at renewal time.  It's fab not having to negotiate each time.

    By "without a landline" do you mean without a physical cable going from your property, or do you mean "without a voice telephony service" ?

  • As long as you steer clear of TalkTalk you should be fine with most providers. Plusnet is a good choice if you want something simple and affordable without the extras or fancy tech. If you can get fibre to the premises (FTTP) from a provider that doesn’t rely on the Openreach network, you’ll usually see much better upload speeds compared to Openreach based providers. Look at Community Fibre, Hey Broadband, Hyperoptic, Truespeed, and YouFibre.
