When i go to university (Leeds uni), how will i phone home every day - will there be a landline in my room?

Yes they do have phones in uni rooms normally your given a card which you 'top up' with cash. I didnt use it however as it can be quite expensive. However people from home will be able to call your number, so you dont always have to ring i suppose. Also id get a better price plan. Ususally if you phone up your provider and ask about changing your minutes/ texts ratio you can! Not a lot of people know that and of course the phone provider wont tell you! The only thing your 'contracted' into is how much you pay per month. Id do that. O2 have good deals with free bolt-ons with certain price palns.
