Yes
Same as yours and 52 meg starts July .
I shall probably go above offer plus pay in advance line rental at pre price rise .
Plus BT TV basic at £0 pm .0 -
I may go for the basic £0/mth TV to get BT Sport 'free' (£49 set-up cost).
I phoned to find out the anytime calls cost - it's £6.50 (was £5.65) and BT Sport on Sky - £3 (was £2.50). So overall it would be about 50p/mth less than I'm paying now including line rental.
I too will take line rental saver before the price increase, saving an extra £12 over the 10% for paying in advance - about £34 altogether. (ie pay £194 instead of £18.99/mth (£228pa))0 -
You can pay the next advanced LR 27 days or less from your current ALR end date .0

Why would anybody haggle BT?
I've just left my contract with them and moved to SSE - got £136 cash back and 75mb broadband for FREE for 18 months (on top of a total saving of £400+ over the year).
To get the best deal you HAVE to move each year in my opinion.0 -
if you clicked through TopCashBack you would have got £60 cash back as well!!

If, like me, you want BT Sport it's a good idea to haggle with BT, as you can get it for free with basic TV or for £3/mth.
However, the SSE deal is excellent, especially with the £136 cashback (presumably through TopCashBack). It would work out cheaper for me even if I pay the full £21.99/mth to get BT Sport on Sky! However, I notice that they charge £3.50 for caller display, which is free on BT, but even with that added I'd still save money compared to BT.
I haven't re-signed up with BT yet, as I'm waiting for my line rental in advance to get closer to it's expiry date, so I think I might switch too. I see the offer's on till November 2016. Hope the TopCashBack deal stays there till I switch! :rotfl:0 -

Got the letter about the BT price hike in July. Took 20 minutes but they discounted me back to price I was paying two years ago so I'm saving over £50 per year. They also offered to waive CLI charge but I don't want that anyway. Result!0
