Hi

Can any of you guys recommend any UK based broadband ISP for a small
home/office?

Requirements:
- I need at least 10GB/month download.
- It must have a fixed IP number (so I can access our secure server).
- I live in a slightly remote rural location.
- I must have a fas-ish,100% reliable service at all times of the day
(for Skype/Teamviewer sessions etc.)

Background:
I have been using Zen Internet for the last couple of years and
although  I am *extremely* pleased with their speed and the
reliability of that speed... I am now regularly going over their
threshold of  "up to 5GB" of download per month (which costs me
£15.31). The next step up is up to25GB of download per month (for
£21.27).

I think £21.27 is just far too much money to spend on broadband - even
if it is on as a premium quality service(!)

- Any recommendations for any other UK broadband service providers?

P.S. I understand that many ISPs operate a covert "fair usage policy",
whereby if you do download over a certain threshold, then they start
to slow down you web access without telling you!
I suspect that from some ISPs this probably is an aggregated thing
whereby if there is the spare capacity in your area you just get the
extra bandwidth. i.e. in effect it depends on how much both you and
your neighbours are up to! But I need a 100% reliability at all times
of the day for using with web conferencing (i.e. Skype / InterVIOP/
Teamviewer4 etc).

PPS. I spend about £95/quarter on my land line with BT which includes
has unlimtied evenings & weekends, call minder, plus also includes
about £35 on actual calls during the day... Maybe I should trash BT
too! :^)
