I'm with virgin Media using their cable service, my 50mb connection has just had a free upgrade to 100mb and is expected to get another jump to 120mb soon. I think my upload spead is 10mb. It doesn't have a data cap, they use traffic management/shaping techiques at certain times of the day for those users that use too much data to slow their connection down during those periods. Costs me about £25 a month and so far I ger very little in the way of problems with it, my speed hovers around the stated level, approx 98mb-99.5mb and rarely goes down. The only issue I have is the fact they forced me to use their Super Hub with its poor Wifi range, I've had to get a repeater box while I save up to get a proper replacement Wifi solution.

My Mobile is with Orange UK on their Panther 36 plan, this gives me 1Gb 3g/HSDPA inclusive for the month which is more that enough for me as I utilise Wifi whenever it's available on my HTX One X. It should cost me £36 a month but being a former employee, I'm entitled to a discount so it only costs £21 a month.

I've also go a 3G data SIM in my Samsung Galaxy Tab which is £25 a month for 1Gb data.

I've also got a USB dongle that gets me 1Gb a month for £15. I've not used it in a while, so will probable cancel the contract on it.

I think that pretty much covers my connections.
