O2 customers looking to bundle their broadband with home phone can now take advantage of the UK’s cheapest line rental at just £7.50 a month.

The deal, which is only available to customers taking one of O2’s home broadband packages, doesn’t offer any inclusive calls - you simply pay for what you use.

You can pay £2 a month if you want to add evening and weekend calls or an extra £5 a month for anytime landline calls.

O2 mobile phone customers can also get a £5 monthly discount on their broadband - saving them even more money.

This means that O2 Basic broadband, which comes with speeds of up to 20Mb broadband and a 20GB download allowance, costs from just £15.50 if you're an existing O2 customer.

The provider is also offering new 30-day contracts for its broadband and home phone bundles.

Simon Piper, business development manager at Homephonechoices.co.uk, said: “This is a great value offer for anyone looking to bundle their home phone with a fast, reliable broadband service.

“Many people only need a landline in order to access the internet, making O2’s super-cheap, pay-as-you-go calls option the perfect choice - especially for existing mobile customers who can save an extra £5 a month on their broadband.

“And even if you add evening and weekend or anytime calls, O2’s home phone deals still offer great value for money,” he added.
