question about talk talk phone/broadband

Hi, I've been reading different threads and I have noticed that the advice is to keep bt as your landline provider, so I've just called talk talk and they have told me that I have to use them as landline provider, I want this option, -


Talk3 international 9.99
line rental 10.50
broadband free

Total 20.49



I want the above option but using BT and not their line rental as I would like anytime calls with free calls to Tenerife and the free boradband, any suggestions would be great

Thanks
a please & thank you is all it takes :wave:

    Talk talk are offering you a combined telephone /broadband package that runs entirely on their network. That is why the price is attractive.
    There is no problem with that unless at some point you decide you would like to use another broadband supplier. That would not possible unless you move your line back to BT, which would cost £100+
    Also in the event of a problem with your line to the exchange then TT have to request BT to look at it, which BT may well consider is a very low priority.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
