Internet in student house

tylerboyo

Hey all
just a few questions, i was previously living in a student house but out of the 7 of us, there was 2 sorting out all the bills/accounts etc.
Anyway, tomorrow im moving in with 3 of my other mates, and was just wondering what to do about internet, gas, electricity and water bills?
Im gonna be living there for about a month on my own till everyone else moves in.
I dont mind setting up the internet under my name/bank account, but dont want everything else under my name/bank account due to chasing up my mates for money when i barely have any in my account anyway.
Ive heard of people settings up joint accounts and people paying money in for bills, how would i do this?
Also, theres a vigrin recommend a friend thing here, but they want £30 installation fee, which you then get back 2-3 months later, but online over the telephone its free installation.
Anyway thanks in advance for any questions answered.
Cheers

My son had a 12 month contract with o2 for his internet and got it cheaper as he has a mobile phone contract with them. Might be worth looking at. £7.50 a month


o2 with mobile contract.

don't open joint accounts incase being linked to them messes up your credit rating

and the possiblity of one of them withdrawing all the funds and no one claiming responsibility
