Standard broadband, (unlimited addresses, web hosting, some broadband phone, etc), £14.99 per month, 2GB/month cap, £1.50 for each extra 2GB. Premium broadband, (even more frills) £21.99 per month, 20GB/month capping during peak periods, unlimited off-peak. All officially 8MB download speed, but it depends on the local British Telecom system. All packages have free help. Other ISPs vary, but I think this is about average. No idea about cable prices.
