We're with Sky and have had no problems. Think it's gone down once for 5 hrs in the last year.

Just to add another, if you can get cable, Virgin is excellent.  I'm moving soon, and I want to move to somewhere that can get cable as the stability and speed is better than the BT equivalent imo.

If no virgin available, then O2 broadband FTW..

Not 1 problem in 2 years, cheaper if u have an o2 phone number

My nephew informs me that my Sky Unlimited is much more reliable than his BT.  I've heard good things about 'Be', and they seem to do pretty well on broadband comparison sites.  If I remember rightly, Which magazine always recommends Zen and Waitrose.

O2, £7.50 / month unlimited if you have an O2 mobile.

6 months is a problem though, everyone will have 12 month contracts.

Vote for Virgin here too, never really had any issues with them in 7 years of being with them and get great speeds all the time Smiley
