    Yes there are conditions (including 18 month contract).

    Wasn't trying to deflate you, shivaraja, just pointing out there is a big saving at bt at the moment (which is unusual). (And note Madasafish won't let you use 1899 etc).

    If you don't want a bt line for any reason, then moneysaving wise the post office do the best deal on line rental (£9.95 a month), includes all evening and weekend calls, and they charge £110 for installation. No contract, you can leave with just 15 days notice.

    4 days to go live with o2.

    I am paying the £12.50 as I am not a o2 customer. As i am a low user mobile holder, it doesn't pay for me to be One. Still £12.50 is not bad.

    Never had so many texts since i signed up, they are letting me know what they are up to.

    Why not get an o2 payg.

    You have to top them up £10 every 3 months.

    You will have £40 worth of credit to use in a year, and will have got £60 off your broadband.

    If you swapped to o2 then you would save that! (And still be £20 (in your hand) better off as well)

    If I bought a payg sim, they wouldn't than drop to £7.50 would they?

    Cheers
