Before you sign up with any ISP I'd check out
www.adslguide.org.uk, which is a fantastic resource for people wanting to research broadband providers.
I did a quick check, and noted that Tiscali are much worse for Speed, Reliability and Customer service, than three other suppliers that I've used at various times and use as a benchmark these days (Nildram, Plusnet and Zen).
Also, quite a few providers are starting to provide cheap capped services. Plusnet is one (and even their 1b Gb per month limit would probably be enough for you if you don't do much in the way of downloading large files).
Definitely worth shopping around.
