Unfortunately not a tenner a month for unmetered anytime.
Demon have also been getting some stick recently in some of the specialist press.
Prices for unmetered access (which tend to use the national friaco based offerings) are somewhat limited by the cost of the underlying service. I'm sure the business model for 7.99 would have to have either a very high contention ration, very small feeds to the internet, limited extra value bits (like mail/web space), no customer service etc to make it profitable.
I'm personally quite happy with Freeserve anytime on ISDN

DSMITH.....interested to know what you pay for Anytime ISDN....do you have a fixed monthly charge of say £25 from Freeserve and still have to pay the quarterly ISDN rental from BT.
I can't get broadband or cable & have wondered about ISDN...but BT's pricing was off this planet before.......
TIA

Freeserve Anytime £12.99/Month
BT Home Highway £26/month. Price Inlcudes your normal phone line.
Home Highway gives you 2 lines, which are dynamically used for ISDN or Normal Phone. So can use your standard phone and ISDN or 2 phones at the same time.
No Internet Call Charges
Normal Phone Calls as per BT normal pricing. friends & family etc.

You could check out Net 4 Nowt ISP Review Site. This is a great site which lists all the ISP's, costs and features including reviews from customers....
