I'm looking to move my mother in law from Utility Warehouse where she's paying £30+ for standard broadband and line rental. Seeing offers from Plusnet, Pop, John Lewis etc for around 20-22 but the reviews are appalling for all of them.
Any ideas where I could move her to?

Don't forget that UW includes free evening and weekend calls.
Was Eclipse Home Option 1, VM 2Mb & O2 Standard
Now Utility Warehouse (up to 16mbps) via Talk Talk

Not sure what their present offer is, but I am happy with about £31/month for broadband (about 53/8Mbs), line rental, and free anytime phone calls to standard and mobile numbers from Vodaphone on FTTC. Broadband speed achievable would depend on the distance 'to the box' assuming fibre is available in her area.

I'd forgotten to add that she can't get FTTP or FTTC. I need to keep the price as low as possible.

Which she definitely doesn't need. She uses he mobile.

You can buy a TP-Link TD-W8961N 300 Mbps Wireless N ADSL2+ Modem Router for under £20 off Amazon, would do the job as VDSL is not available

On BT Broadband up to 80 Mbps...
But NOT for much longer!
Previously on NOW TV Broadband up to 38 Mbps

Check if she is on any means tested benefit (income support or universal credit or pension credit etc.)
If so then BT basic+broadband at £10.07 per month is available.

She is on pension credit - how does she get BT basic and broadband???

Make sure it is the guaranteed credit part of pension credit.

I think you have to phone them and they send a paper application form, they then verify with DWP etc. so it takes a few weeks.
The customer only gets the basic "BT hub 4" but that is perfectly adequate for an ADSL service.

Right now you can get ADSL on Talktalk *Business* for £18+VAT = £21.60 per month (no connection fee, 12 month contract, and no price rise at end)

I've not used TTB myself, but from what I've heard, their customer service is far better than TT Residential. Plus, the free static IP might help if you are doing remote management of her PC
