In an unsurprising move, BT<\/a> has confirmed that their legacy Line Rental Saver (LRS) discount is to finally be “withdrawn from sale<\/em>” on 21st July 2023. The service gave a special discount to home broadband customers who separately pre-paid for their phone line rental a year in advance.<\/p>\n

The LRS product is a legacy discount from the era when related service bundles were still being split into separate charges for broadband and line rental, which stopped being sold some years ago (2016\/17) after a change in the advertising rules (here<\/a>). Since then, broadband ISPs have been expected to only show all-inclusive up-front and monthly costs (i.e. no more separating out line rental on related bundles).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> BT<\/a>’s standard line rental charge is currently \u00a326.35 per month.<\/div>\n

However, some of BT<\/a>’s customers with older broadband bundles still take the LRS “discount<\/em>” (i.e. you pre-pay \u00a3219.84 for 12-months), although it’s debatable whether this produces much of a benefit vs the latest bundles and is perhaps far more likely to cause consumer confusion.<\/p>\n

Suffice to say that it was only a matter of time before BT finally pulled the plug on LRS and, since last month, they’ve been steadily informing their remaining customers who take the service that it will finally be withdrawn from sale later this month.<\/p>\n

BT LRS Statement<\/strong><\/p>\n

Line Rental Saver is being withdrawn from sale on 21 July 2023. From this date we will no longer offer the option to pay in advance for your line rental.<\/p>\n

After your Line Rental Saver has expired, you will no longer have the Line Rental Saver discount of \u00a319.99 applied to your package price each month, as you will not have paid in advance for your line rental. Instead you will pay the full package price each month.<\/p>\n

For more information, please call 0800 800 150.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Customers impacted by this might want to consider switching to a cheaper ISP or upgrading their BT package to a more modern broadband and digital phone bundle, although others may be able to renew LRS (one last time) before the deadline. According to This is Money<\/a>, customers affected by this will also get a credit of at least \u00a310 on their next bill.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
