Top money saving tips to cut the cost of your home phone bill:

  1. Reduce the cost of line rental by switching to a provider who can bill you for line rental as well as calls. For example, The Post Office charges £9.95 per month for line rental, compared to BT’s £11.   
  2. Use a price comparison site to compare home home deals for your area simply and easily.
  3. If you don’t use your phone much go for a simple phone tariff with no monthly charge where you simply pay for the calls you make.
  4. If you make a lot of weekend and evening calls it might be worth paying a few pounds a month in exchange for free evening and weekend calls to landlines.
  5. If you make a lot of phone calls at all times of the day, it might be cheaper to pay around £8 - £15 per month for free anytime calls to UK landlines.
  6. Read your phone bill. Charges to mobiles, long-distance and International calls are all charged at different rates depending on when you make them. So read your phone bill and work out what types of calls you make so you know which phone package is best for you.
  7. Don’t pay for what you don’t need. If you’re paying extra for lower call charges to friends and family but aren’t calling any of these numbers regularly it could be cheaper to turn them off.
  8. Get something for nothing.  You could always try Skype’s free software, which works seamlessly with your internet connection, to chat away with free Skype-to-Skype calls and never worry about cost, time or distance.
