Best broadband, landline and mobile deal?

Hi,

Wonder if anyone can help?

I am with bt for line rental, virgin for broadband and orange for mobile.

Virgin have just upped their broadband price from £10 to £15 per month including free evening and weekend calls.

Total cost per month at the moment is:

£15 line rental
£15 plus for broadband and calls
£10 guess for mobile payg.

Am I right in thinking going with orange is the best option? I have no sky nor cable.

£11.50 line rental
£10.00 broadband and anytime calls
£10.00 per month payg top up

Is this correct? I thought only BT provided line rental?

Are there any good comparison sites I can use?

PAD to date: £1166-22

Pay off as much as you can #127: £4,600 (£2,300 debt / £2,300 saved)in 2011.£660 / £4,600.(debt paid 28.7%; target 14.3%).

    Not sure about line rental and broadband, but this is a good deal for pay as you go mobilegiffgaff.com/orders/affiliate/stu8rt
  • try giffgaff.com/orders/affiliate/stu8rt for mobile

    Have a look at Primus. They do a few different deals therefore you could have landline calls + broadband at a good price. You could add line rental too but a poster I respect warned me not to have their full bundle.

    At the moment I am paying BT for line rental @ £13, monthly telephone calls approx £5, AOL for broadband - this was £6.99 but has been increased to £7.98 due to their taking the money from my credit card, even though I have been with them for years. AOL UK is now part of Talk Talk.
  • Thank's Jake'sGran,

    I'll have a look at those.
