Not talk talk is it?

They seem hell bent on taking over the world at the moment.

Talk talk HQ.

Not exactly free broadband is it?

Pay BT for their basic line rental and for £11 a month you get free evening and weekend calls anyway.

Why not just say " who wants broadband for £17 a month?" I hate sales people, so programed to lie.

Indeed, not free, and if it's Sky then it's got a big reputation for being useless, slow, unreliable. I have Sky with the 'free' broadband but I actually pay for seperate broadband with Be* as I want it to be reliable.

I've had near perfect broadband service for nearly 3 years with my current company, it includes free landline calls at any time, and costs me £25 a month.

Wouldn't be interested in faffing around to save a mere £8 a month.

I paid £22.16 last month for broadband, with free phone calls lasting up to an hour any time of the day to a landline number and that includes my line rental.
The actual cost is £20.24, the difference is a couple of numbers I called which are 0845 or 0844 numbers. Not worth the hassle of changing for me.

I think that you need to research the word ''free''. You clearly have no idea of it's meaning. Type the word into a search engine and you may be surprised at what you find!

That really annoys me too. 'Free texts forever as long as you keep paying per month!'
I guess that's a promise that the offer will never end, probably with small print 'we reserve the right to end the offer at any time'.

We get free calls to all landlines any time from BT £16.20 which includes line rental.

Broadband costs £20 a month but get big download limit and we sell it to a neighbour for £10 a month so in effect we get everything for £26 a month. To call mobiles, I will use one of the various mobiles around the house which have free calls.

I bet there is a limit on the Broadband anyway.

Vodafone give me free texts and internet. Not sure about texts but the internet has a ''fair use policy'' of 500mb.

Meh, worth a try. And the broadband is free...you just have to pay for the call package which happens to include most of what people are being charged for on top of what they pay Laughing

11.25 line rental

6.49 for eve and weekend calls including anytime local, other customers (which is alot), 0845/0870/1471/1571/caller display, cheaper to mobiles etc.

0 for broadband in certain areas. Other areas have to pay 15 pound still. Only a select number of slots in each area before it goes to 15 pound for a while again.

And generally one of the fastest providers.

But some are getting nearly as good as a deal anywho.

But nevermind Thumbs Up Laughing
