What is a good alternative to BT for home telephone ?

[Kayleigh]

Ideally would want to keep our telephone number.
Anyone use anyone cheaper than BT ?

You still have to rent the line from BT I think, but you don't have to route your calls through them. We have OneTel UK Talk, which has no fee and provides free weekend calls to any landline, so we use that at weekends, During the week we use 18866.

Have a look \link{http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/callchecker/\Here} for the latest news on who's cheapest.

I used to have homecall. I got a free portable phone, and they were really cheap. Definately shop around tho.

Call 18866 \link{http://www.call18866.co.uk\look here}

Agree with 80s mumm but e use itall the time

Mercy, if you signed up with \link{http://www.onetel.co.uk/index.php?node=landline-sukt\OneTel} (or other similar deal) it would mean you'd save on your weekend calls, which would then be completely free. They are currently costing you 3p each with 18866!

Very happy with ntl and kept my Bt number. don't have any of their packages though.
