"Short Term Broadband"

Basically NTL are gay, so I need to get a BT phone line and a broadband sorted pretty soonish. I'll only need it until July next year though, so not that long.

BT line I'll be able to sort out tonight, but I don't know what BB provider to go with, Freeola only have a 3 month contract but what are the 'hidden' costs? Pipex have a 1 month contract but it's a £70 fee if you quit before 12 months so it's pretty pricey.

I'm all confuslerised, who's good for short term stuff?

There's gonna be 5 computers linked up to it too, 1MB should be fine unless we all download porn at the same time...

Help?

Thanks.

I'd recommend Pipex. The cancellation fee is only £56-something, but you get that back if you reconnect with them up to a year down the line (I think it's a year), by giving them your old username.

I'd imagine all ISPs that don't tie you in for 12 Months will have a similar kind of fee.

Pipex in general are exellent, and one of the few decent ISPs to offer true uncapped Broadband. Competitively priced too.
