Whether you’ve just moved to the UK and want a cheap phone package, or are simply looking to save money on your bills, we’ve rounded up some of the country’s best landline deals.

If you need to get a new landline service in your home, it’s essential that you compare packages to get the best deal. And, if you’ve never switched your home phone provider, you could stand to save as much as £60 a year¹ by signing up to the UK’s cheapest line rental deal.

The tables below show some of the best line rental and calls packages in the country - compare what’s on offer with Homephonechoices.co.uk to find the deal for you.

UK evening and weekend call packages

If you rarely make calls using your landline, signing up for an evening and weekend call plan will probably be your cheapest home phone option. You can get an evening and weekend calls package with line rental from Primus Saver for as little as £8.99 a month. Other providers, including YourCalls.net (www.yourcalls.net) and Direct Save Telecom (www.directsavetelecom.co.uk) also offer competitive deals.

Use the Homephonechoices.co.uk online search tool to compare evening and weekend call plans - we’ll help you find the cheapest deal for your home.

UK anytime call packages

Making calls during the day can be expensive if you’re not on the right call plan. Signing up to a deal which offers unlimited anytime calls will help save you money on your landline bills, and avoid costly day time rates.

Getting an anytime call plan will cost you extra, from £2 to £6 a month, and will be added on top of your monthly line rental cost.

Shop around for the best deal using the postcode checker on Homephonechoices.co.uk - compare anytime plans to find a package to suit your calling habits.

UK line rental deals

Making sure you’re on a cheap line rental deal is the key to cutting your bills - line rental can vary in price from £9 a month up to around £15 a month, depending on the provider.

Other factors that affect the price of your line rental include how you pay your bills, and how you choose to receive your bills. Opting for online paperless billing and paying by direct debit will get you the best deals.

Compare line rental with the price checker on Homephonechoices.co.uk and see if you could save by switching to a cheaper deal.
