Is there a cheaper alternative to BT's extortionate prices?

Question

Hi there! I'm in the UK and with BT for my phone and AOL for my broadband. Each month we get a bill from BT for about £40 even though we don't use it AT ALL for phone calls. Is there a different company we can go with that doesn't still require us to pay BT for line rental. I wish there was an option where we could just have internet, as we only use our mobiles! Can anyone advise please?

Thanks,

Eva x

Answer 1

I am with Talktalk - they charge 10.50 per month basic rental. They have other options for call packages and 'free' internet. I pay 20.49 for rental/broadband/inclusive landline AND international calls. The broadband is not the best speed, but it is adequate, and the calls deal is the cheapest I have ever had.

If you shop around you will definitely find cheaper deals. You could probably even get a cheaper rate from BT, if you ask them.
