    Your line rental would be much cheaper if paid 12 months in advance. You aren't getting good value from your anytime call package as you only made 8 inclusive calls .

    Switch to Plusnet if out of minimum term? Cheaper, plus around £70 cashback at present.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Be careful of paying line rental in advance. That locks you into broadband as well for the next year. The best broadband offers these days are conditional on you moving phone line too. Paying line rental in advance IS NOT REFUNDABLE.

    Now I wonder why BT offer line rental in advance for 1yr but broadband contracts as 18mth?
