Hi, looking for some advice, I am looking for anyone who provides short term line rental - ideally month by month but would take 3 months. I have E-mailed BT re Basics but don't hold out much hope with my past experiences of BT.
Thanks

Zen will do 1 month. I don't know if they're necessarily the best deal, but they don't lock you in. Identical service to BT themselves.

If I remember correctly, BT Basic requires you to have some sort of entitlement - you have to be on a very low income, and/or in receipt of certain benefits, etc.

You haven't said why you need a 'landline'.

There are a couple of other ways: if you want a local 'landline' number, Sipgate Basic offers a PAYG service, where you get a free local VOIP number, which can forward to a mobile phone, or be used with a VOIP phone plugged into a router, or be used with a VOIP app like 3CX on a mobile phone.

Or if you need a 'landline' type phone handset, there are SIM-Free GSM handsets that take a sim card but operate like fixed line handsets.
