Student Broadband

ACRitch

Myself and two others are moving into a rented flat in Edinburgh and are struggling to grasp the best deal out of several out there for broadband. We will only be renting the property for ten months of the year. The situation isn't helped as we are also unsure of what additional costs we have - we have not been through this process before and aren't knowledgable about line rental etc..

Any information would be of great benefit! Thanks!

Basics line rental monthly + broadband monthly + cost of calls made . Usually minimum 12 months contract.

Sky have got a deal on for students.
9 months contract instead of the usual 12.
16.40 line rental and free broadband unlimited

My son is in a similar position. He is just moving into a basement studio flat, and wants broadband/wifi only. His smartphone has 'free' call apps, and 600 mins per month with unlimited txts, and he's dragging his iMac with him. He doesn't want to pay for line rental, if he can avoid it. Is there a cheaper solution than the £16.40 Sky student deal?

VM cable is the other option, if in an enabled area. Line rental and phone package not required, although the bundle prices effectively mean that you pay nearly as much anyway.
