Mobile-phone giant Vodafone claims it is scrapping line rental charges for new and upgrading home broadband customers in the UK.
The move means customers will not be billed the current £18 ($23) monthly charge but only if they commit to an 18-month contract.
They will still get a landline connection and phone number, the firm said. Prices will start at £22 a month.

Well while it may not be perfect, its a start! I'll look forward to further changes with other providers. I appreciate there are comments around 'Merge' but I see this as a good move!
