            While the OR won't allow internet on your SoA unless it's necessary for work/study, and won't allow Sky TV or the like, if it's all part of your phone package it's perfectly acceptable, obviously as long as you're not on the top Johnny package!

            hi lino one word of caution regarding ;
 "we are getting alot of hassle from creditors by letters and i have no way of communcating other than letter which is not a big problem but would like a phone so we can contact them as well"
 you will get more hassle with your creditor by phone they will call you night and day until you pay off the debt .. so i will keep in writing as often creditor over the phone are rude, intimidating ! better to contact them in writing as if they say something bad you can prove thereafter.BSC number 1830
