So long and thanks for all the fish

I recently reduced my IDNet phone package to line rental only but as we've now been getting quite a few weird sales calls I've bitten the bullet and taken up the current BT offer where you can pay 1 years line rental up front (£120 by credit or debit card) and get caller display for free.

So one less bill for a year.

Nothing bad to say about IDNet but need to make sure my money goes as far as possible.

Good luck!

voice line is a voice line and doesn't have broadband on that one so I should be ok

As long as your sure it's BT that phoned you, and not one of those pretend sellers.

Why not just do the same with Idnet? I pay annually and also get caller ID free anyway.

The deed is now done so no going back now.

Caller display has been free with BT since 2005, and is also free with IDNet provided you have a call package, obviously you don't need caller display with line only

Line thats being transferred is used for voice calls so its useful.

Make sure you make at least two (chargeable) calls a month, or BT will slap on £5.20 for the Caller ID and other charges.

Happened to us last month... won't be with them in September.
