Wanting broadband & landline call package

Hi can anyone recommend a broadband (not fibre as its not in my area) & anytime calls package.

I was with EE broadband & weekend calls, due to a deal on here MArtin put up...this has finished last month, need to sort out immediately as charging me full....

Ee is offering a 18 month contract with £299 upfront (ridiculously high) it was £165 last year. Anytime calls & 1500 minutes mobile calls, oversea calls which i dont need! Paying £4.50 a month thereafter the paying upfront.

If anyone can help with any better offers elsewhere, would be very grateful.....i need to move fast on this 😬

Many thanks for reading

    It looks as though they are all taking advantage of the new pricing legislation to introduce a significant rise. Look what is available in your area and have a look at each provider's website, noting what is included and excluded, as they do vary. (eg Sky has caller display included but PlusNet charges extra. Some have line rental saver and others don't)

  • Try origin broadband. 17.99 per month for line rental and upto 17mb or they do saver packages of 174 for 12 months and 299 for 24 months. They do fibre packages also. 100% UK based. Been with them for 15 months on a fibre package. Can't fault them. Far better than sky, talk talk and BT who I've all been with at some time.
