Are you sure you can't get ADSL ?

If you dial up through BT (which you appear to), then you've got a BT link and an 
awful lot of exchanges are not geared for ADSL, nobody does very much, around a week 
after you order it, you will discover your dial-up speeds are reduced considerably, 
mmine went to 42Kbps, and my ADSL had been activated.

I left BT Surftime cos they upped it to 25UKP/mo, and went like many fellow Sluggers 
to Pipex which is 24UKP/mo.

You'll need to get your own ADSL modem (~80UKP) plus at least one ADSL 
splitter/microfilter, but it's been great since.

I signed up online at www.dsl.pipex.com (I was going to go with Demon, but they're 
making it way too hard and 50UKP more expensive to boot...)
