ISP recommendation??

Having, thankfully, reached the point where I can dump my present ISP without penalty charge, I am looking for a replacement. Scanning the 'net, the options appear to be almost non-existent. I would prefer to have a Domestic Broadband/ Telephone combination deal but, apart from Virgin, (not possible 'cos no cable) I've tried everyone apart from Plusnet and Zen. All were/are rubbish in one area or another. Does anyone have any experience of either of the latter two or any recommendations. I am, apparently, in Market area 1 = BT-only lines so no competition and thus higher charges. Distance from exchange and poor quality copper mean max D/L possible is 1.7Mbs (with an I-Plate fitted) so no point in paying for high D/L service. Have, so far, used AOL, BT, Tiscali, TalkTalk, and, presently, Orange.
Any thoughts, anyone, please?
TIA
