I lived in a couple of house-shares, then I finally got my own house 4 years ago. I chose Virgin Media (formerly NTL) as my ISP because there was no line rental. I took Virgin with me whenever I moved, always being hassle-free. My mobile is on Orange contact, therefore with several hundred free minutes. I very rarely go over the bill, and if I do, then it's only by a few quid. Having a landline would mean paying BT to fit the line, paying for a line rental plus the cost of landline calls. I'm therefore happy to just carry on paying £30+VAT a month for Raccoon 30 and £20 for Virgin. The beauty of only having a mobile is that I never ever had a cold call. I know that it can be a problem with mobile-only users. E.g. does it look bad on my CV if I only write down my mobile number? Bear in mind that I've had the same mobile number for 10 years now, same network.
