Can I save any pennies?

Were on a major cost cutting exercise at the moment.
My home phone is with Ntl and my bill is anything between £10-15 a month.
This is for quite a few long local calls and a few longer distance calls. On top of this they charge me £9.50p a month standing charge and 32 for not paying by direct debit.
I wanted Ntl broadband as were with Aol but that isnt in my area (leicester) as yet
Can anyone please see where any savings can be made here?
I only use the phone when we really need to any both me and my hubby have mobiles (£5 a month is that)
Any ideas are most welcome
Thanks

Aiming to loose 56 pounds this year. Total to date 44.5 pounds 12.5 to go. Slimming World Rocks!

  • Start using 1899 and make sure that you are only on the basic NTL phone package. That should shave a few pounds off each month for starters.
    ...and then the window licker said to me...
  • Sincere thanks can you please tell me where I can find some info on doing so?
