Tiscali/others?

Hello

This may seem like a fairly stupid question but can anyone tell me if you still pay line rental to BT if taking a Tiscali Broadband/phone offer?

They are currently offering 12.99 per month for 1mb broadband and free weekend calling, this seems pretty cheap to me.

Are there any better offers out there, particularly ones which don't tie you in for 12 months?

Cheers

Minski

    Hi, yep unless you specify line rental with them. I am currently with plusnet. 1 month contract only, £15 includes anytime calls free (except mobiles, o87o and 0845) and also includes line rental.
    Currently 4 me its Rogers Contract cell phone, REBTEL.COM is the best mobile making and receiving calls to/from UK and Canada:beer:

    Think that is the cheapest you will find of the big brand names, unless you go for one of the 'free' deals with the likes of Sky, Talk Talk or Orange
