Don't look at the short-term pricing, look at the long-term I currently only have broadband from Virgin Media and it is cheaper than their Broadband and phone line package However, if I cancel my existing rolling contract it would be cheaper for 6 months, but after that it would be more...

It depends on who your Internet provider is At my previous property I had no choice about the BT Landline, as there was no alternative in order to obtain dialup and then broadband However, at my current property phone and Broadband are separate (TeleWest, now Virgin Media) My first years...
