Define "phone line" do you mean a copper pair or mobile?

Is this SIM only? Many 1 month rolling contracts about for SIM only.

What use is it going to get? Occasional email and web browsing or
watching Netflix for 6hrs/day?


Sorry, I'll try again.

Don't need the phone line itself to make calls, just the broadband.

Any idea if such contracts exist for gas and electricity too?

There are companies that specialise in "one stop shop" for student
houses. All four utilities, line rentals and TV licence. Rates are
probably not the best though.

For nine months you're probably looking at a standard tariff but also
lookut for tariffs with no early termination charge.


That's a good point, thanks - haven't thought of that.



Mobile network router & sim deal?
Bring it home after 9 months (more like 6 shurely?), or take it on
your "gap year"...


This lot watch Netflix day and night, so the only mobile option is one
that comes with unlimited data, and they are not cheap (unless it is
from Three, but there is no reception there).
