Is It Time To Bundle Your Phone Connections Together?
While nearly every home in the UK has a landline connection, many homes will also have potentially multiple mobile phone network agreements in place. Some homes in the UK might have up to 5 mobile phones and a landline all of which may be with different network providers. So how can you save money on phone charges?
Many of the phone companies such as Carphone Warehouse will offer you a land line as well as a mobile phone agreement for a discounted price. For those homes which have multiple mobile phones in use there is always the opportunity to take them all on the same network and make use of offers such as free minutes to same network, free texts and free landline minutes.
It you have one landline and one mobile the difference may not be enormous but if you have one landline, broadband and a number of mobile phones the savings can literally add up to hundreds of pounds a year. When you consider the current state of the economy and how scarce 'free' money is, how handy would a few hundred pounds a year come in?
