I'm on option 2 and never go over the limit on that. 40GB download limit is immense, you'd have to do some serious downloading to top that!

do you play online though? On my current option 1 i only went over once, whilst playing games. The bill came to £88...

Maybe on the 360, but as a PC user, 40Gb isn’t a huge amount.
Ten DVDs, for example.

I used to a lot. Not much lately though. Best thing to do is look at your prior maximum usage and then look at options 2 or 3 and see what works out best.
I'm thinking of changing over to Sky's offer of TV, phone and broadband for £26. I'm not sure what the limit is on that. I know you still have to pay BT's basic line rental (£9.99) on top, but it works out that I spend what I do now anyhow and get SKY TV too.
EDIT: just checked into it and it's £26 with a 40GB download a month or £31 for unlimited usage

Yeah, I don't torrent. With the BT package it builds up so that what you don't use gets carried over to the next month.
