ISP advice please

I'm looking for an ADSL service for my student son from September to June for a shared house in Exeter.

They would like a minimum 1MB unlimited connection and already have a wireless modem/router.

Obviously don't want a 12 month contract. Any ideas on who would offer them the best value service please?

    Thanks, Squeaky.

    The package looks good. Have looked around the site but it appears to involve a 12 month contract. Can't see anywhere it actually says that but it does say if you want to make any alterations to your service it would involve a NEW 12 month contract.

    Oops. It's a truly unlimited deal and they're a good and reliable ISP. Shame about the contract time. I've been with them ten years now and am way past worrying about minor details like that.

    Sorry.

    Try http://www.nildram.net/ good customer service, score very well on adsl guide and 30 days notice. Not the cheapest but reliable. Oh and just checked their web page:- Host to London 2012 Olympic Site...:)

    The best place is www.adslguide.org.uk for information. Many providers who waive the activation fee on installation will charge you the ~£60 if you leave within 1 year.
