There's no such thing as line rental on its own now, you have to have one of their packages.Could someone please tell me the quarterly line rental,including VAT,paying by Direct Debit.
The minimum is BT Together Option 1 (a.k.a. "The Hour Plan") which gives you calls to UK 01/02/03 numbers evenings and weekends for 4½p for up to an hour. Peak calls are 6p 'Call Set-up fee' + 3¼p/minute.
That costs £33/quarter if paid by DD (£37.50 if paid any other way).
However, the cost can be reduced by a further 50p/month if you also opt for paper-free (online only) billing - bringing the cost down to £10.50/month or £31.50/quarter.Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0 -
Just to clarify
Peak calls are 6p 'Call Set-uip fee' + 3¼p/minute
Every call you make at peak times,they charge 6p (more or less for the connection)and then it`s 3.25p a minute.
Is this correct?0 -

Yes your be charged 6p call connection fee and 3.25p a minute by BT at peak rate to call 01/02/03 geographical numbers.Unless you have an inclusive call package.
This can be avoided by joining www.18185.co.uk and paying just 5p a call !!!0
