Any suggestions for streamlining and saving

Hi
Wonder if there are any ideas about if/how I could tidy up the following and maybe save a bit of cash. I currently have:
2 x PAYG mobile phones (don't use them a great deal maybe £10 a month and like to have a 2nd phone for backup)
1 x BT landline with their free evening and weekend package - pay £30 a month DD.
Freeview box for TV.
Orange Home Max (I think) £20 a month unlimited internet with a Livebox.
I keep getting stopped by folk in supermarkets and asked who and what packages I have for phone etc but never have time to stop and chat due to having small child in tow!
Thinking about moving house soon and would like to maybe save a bit of cash - can leave Orange with no penalty as 18 months contract up. Think might be tied into BT for a few more months.
I need: 2 x mobiles, homephone, broadband internet and digital telly.
Any ideas appreciated.

First thing to look at there is your landline and calls cost. BT line rental is £11.54, Anytime calls package £4.99. So the maximum you should be paying is £16.53. If you are paying £30 you must be making a lot of exclusive calls, sort that out and you'll be saving £168 a year.
Freeview boxes are available for next to nothing, £20 for a basic supermarket one.
However if you are moving house, not a good time to commit to new phone or broadband deals, as you may lose out when you move if you cannot migrate the contract and are locked into a 12 or 18m deal.
