Broadband and Phone for 6 months
I am about to rent a property on a 6 month lease. It already has a BT line connected. I'm not in a cable area, so I need the line for the Internet. Does anyone know of any landline and broadband companies that have short-term contracts (6 months), that are also unlimited? Or do I need to go down the 12 month BT landline +…

Broadband with non-BT line?
Wonder if anyone can help?

MAC question
Hi everyone, I'm in the process of moving ISP, from NewNet to BT. I got a MAC from NewNet on 07 March and gave it to BT the same day. However, because I knew that I had to pay for the NewNet service up until 22 April, I asked BT to transfer the service over on that day. The MAC from NewNet is due to expire on 07 April, so…

BT Total Broadband - unfair and unavoidable cancellation charge for engineer
After switching from BT Total Broadband to O2 Broadband I have now been charged £25 for a BT engineer to come out and disconnect me at the local switch.

We placed the order on line and we were given 23rd March as the date of activation. Unfortunately the 23rd came and went with no activation and no BB box…
