Broadband / Fibre Advice if you can?

(This is for UK #!ers)

I'm presently on O2 broadband and it's always been a bit flakey.  Now Sky are taking it over (I'm not a big fan of the Murdoch empire) and I'm considering something better.  Some people have recommended Virgin Fibre but they don't have it in my area.  There is however a few other fast providers (EE, Plusnet, BT Infinity) but various forums have made me concerned about things such as SSH access.

Who are the good providers that don't restrict SSH?

I would recommend XILO:

I have an LLU package where you get no limits, static ip and it is about £15. Plus it is a rolling monthly contract.

They are very good with customer support, I can't imagine they would restrict SSH, but you can always ask.

I have FTTC at work and we use Zen Internet.

Not cheap but very reliable. Certainly recommend. Not sure about SSH restrictions though.
