leaving BT
Hi we are currently with BT for broadband but it is absolutly useless, constantly loses connection whilst using wireless, speed is awful. We want to move to another provider but are only 2 months into our 18 month contract. Is there any loophole to get us out early or does anyone know what they charge to leave early? thanks
