Do I need a landline?

The cheapest landline is with pay as you go phone, unlimited calls are £5 extra (BT) so don’t plug a phone in it won’t cost anything.

I am with Plusnet and pay around £16 a month for phone and broadband.

I have a landline as my package with Virgin is cheaper with it.

Hence "used to say"

I have kept my landline but like you keep thinking I don’t really need it I have only two friends who ring me on the landline I pay about £27 a month and hang on to it fir the broadband with EE and then about £24 for my mobile with free texts etc
How do you get broadband without a landline ?

We are with Virgin and refuse point blank to have a landline.

The last time I had a landline was 2004.

They used to say we needed a landline for sky and virgin but I don't think you do anymore, not sure you ever did but it was a con they got away with.

Landline is often free for most U.K. calls, you pay for the line connection and broadband, extras include sport, TV and other services. Around £30 for the basic package.

Mobiles can be expensive if you browse the Internet a lot, or if you have an older phone, sim only packages start around £10 a month. I rarely use my landline phone, the mobile is the number I always quote, broadband I use quite a lot for all sorts of things.

I have BT landline with broadband I’d willingly get rid of my landline which I hardly use but I want to hang on to my BT broadband so I have to keep paying for the line it’s very expensive.

Both my partner and I don't have and don't want a mobile phone, so the landline phone is our lifeline. I do worry what will happen if landlines are phased out. I feel we're being forced into getting a mobile phone. At the moment I pay around £32 for landline and broadband.

I like having a landline. I'm with Sky, and for the landline and broadband, I pay £27 a month. I can make calls to any landline, at any time of day/night, for up to 1 hour at a time, FREE.

My mobile is with 3 and costs £17, for limitless texts. I make a few calls on it and use Google now and then.

I don't like sports and don't spend much time watching the tv, so I bought a FreeSat box (about £80 I think, from Amazon)

Fewer and fewer are using landlines now. If you live in an area with cell disruptions you may want to keep it, otherwise it is an added expense. I'm wondering why we keep ours sometimes, but there are a few people that still call it.

I pay £35 a month for my landline and Broadband/fibre but I can't see a mobile any longer so it's not an option for communications.
My son did put a voice-operated system on it for me which helps me send texts but that doesn't help with icons and controls!

If there is any chance your eyes might not cope later on, keep your landline. After the necessary deductions, it may not be too bad.

I use PlusNet for Phone and Broadband and pay £33. I don't need a mobile as I hardly ever leave my home so I need a landline.
Daddima you are paying too much.
When you get rid of the SPort and change provider you will save a lot of money
