New place, so Line Rental / Connection help needed

in Phones & TV
Hey,
I need help with a decent company that will reconnect a phone reasonably, as well as give me decent line rental charges.
I rarely use my home phone to call. I get mins on my mobile, so why would I want to pay for something else? In reality I'd just not get a phone, except for that one thing. I use broadband, so I need that line. Now with a move on the horizon, I want a new company that actually works for me for once
BT rip me off with a useless package and line rental currently, with the reason of, oh well broadband users can't be low users...
Are there any companies out there who will just charge me line rental pretty much? I don't need, or want, a stupid package to call Africa at 4am in the morning for 6 hrs.
I don't even mind if call charges are set high, but line rental is set low. I simply wont call out of it, that's not a problem.
I've looked at primus saver, but how are they for reconnection, and just being a line provider?
I don't do TV, I don't want BT's/virgin/talktalk etc net, I don't need weekend free calls, but surely there is something out there for me that works?

Hi,
I'm in exactly the same position as I live and work away from home during the week. Up until now I have been using btfon with my home BT Broadband but it's a bit flaky and slow so have started think along the same lines as you i.e. a phone that I won't use just to get the line for BB.
I have just received an E-mail about a deal from Primus called Exclusive. You pay for your calls (which is irrelevant) but the important thing is that the monthly line rental is on £6.79, which is exactly what I'm looking for and then add a cheap BB on top. Only thing is I don't know anything about Primus but will easily find out0
