You should follow Adrian Kennard's blog: http://www.revk.uk/

He's the CEO of AAISP, arguably the best and most transparent ISP in the UK (also quite a small one).

On costs, there's also contracts with other ISPs (most lines are leased from other ISPs, not leased by the ISP itself), customer hardware (routers and other gadgets), marketing, support, subcontracts for personnel across the country, etc.

Ah, the XKCD/806-compliant guys? :). I remember that ISP fondly from discussion about UK Internet filtering on HN. Thanks for reminding me about their CEO's blog!

Funnily enough, their XKCD806 "compliance" is pretty useless since whenever you call, you get someone who actually has a clue regardless. They don't have call centers. It's really nice, I miss them!

Well, they're technically compliant, and technical compliance is the best compliance! :).
