I too had a real carry on with Orange - lost connection for 2 weeks, refused a MAC but gave excuses etc etc.
I moved to Idnet and they are absolutlely fantastic -
100% reliable connection
Free customer support from staff who are knowledgable, friendly and speak English
1 month contratcs with no tie-ins
I know you wanted no ties but this company really is most excellent.
There's a lot of praise and happy customers in their forums, the staff post in there too.

Hi SOJH
Virgin do offer a no contract broadband... but... There is a set-up fee and if I remember correctly (from a friend who recently cancelled her Virgin broadband), there may also be a cancellation fee - check this out first!
Because ISPs have to pay BT for the broadband line activation they will either tie you in to a year contract or charge you a set-up (or cancellation or both) fee to cover that cost. --- I am sure this is still the case.
When looking for your ISP, ensure you are fully aware of all charges and contract lengths... Whether you go for contract or no contract, once you do the sums, you will find that they total up to the same cost, give or take a pound or two.
ok signed up to Virgin.net 17.99 up to 8 meg, they say 6 meg easy.
6 gig limit no contract but £50 cancelation fee.
i will try to keep you posted on speeds i get compared to Orange who could only give me 2 meg at only 700m from the exchange.
tbh waiting for Sky package at 16meg £10
