" 47% of residents in central London saying they would prefer to not have a landline as part of their broadband deal"
So ONLY 47% of people would rather have something for free than paying for it - just shows how stupid the other 53% are ..........!0 -

My landline and broadband added together will average about £12 a month for 18 months, compared to £20 for this new service.
