Line rental costs

How can I avoid paying for line rental and still have broadband access? Some of my friends are with BT and pay no line rental charges i.e., they have no landline phone.

If you have Fibre BB switch to "Fibre w/out Landline (sic)" (SOGEA). There will still be a landline to host the BB but you won't pay for it & you'll have no phone service or no.

Thanks for the fast response. I will look for that option. What is (SOGEA)?

Look it up on Google in the context of BB.

@cpk1 Have a look at THIS I’ve got BB with EE and no landline, I’ve had this for about 2 1/2 years now. When we did have a line we never even connected a phone to it so as soon as EE offered no landline BB it was a no brainer.
