It still won't alter the fact that Openreach will want paying for the copper between the house and exchange though so no matter how it's all dressed up there is unlikely to be much, if any, saving.0 -
I agree broadband is cheap, and I get much more value from it than my gym membership. I was of course being ironic about the expectation of freebies.
If you sign a long deal, you do get a "free" smartphone, though.
No worries, I was aware you were being ironic.
