Line Rental Saver

What effect does losing the Line Rental Saver have?

[licquorice · Accepted solution]

It increases your monthly payments.

there is no large upfront payment for LRS and therefore there is no monthly reduction so affectively you pay the agreed package price

LRS gave you the equivalent of around 1 month line rental free, worth around £21 over a 12 month period

All LRS became was a £20 a year ‘discount’ , for paying around £220 upfront in advance you had a £20 discount on the monthly bill , 12* £20=240 , so as stated , you pay £20 per month more but you don’t pay £220 upfront, presumably the main reason it was removed is that broadband includes line rental ( and most customers have broadband ) it became a product that its name Line Rental Saver didn’t really represent its function anymore
