BT Home Hub 3
Guys, I'm wondering if you could help me on this. We have recently changed internet providers from Orange to BT. Managed to set up the hub to the computer using the Ethernet cable (all 3 lights on the hub are now blue).

Being charged additional fee for Broadband in my area, options ??
I am moving house, previously my broadband with orange was £5 per month and £13.50 line rental in a package. At my new house the total is £28.50 a month as they charge an additional £10 per month "to use BTs lines" apparently. It therefore seems that any quote I get on the internet is nonsense. Has anyone else encountered…

filtered faceplate installers and cost?
I'm having a lot of trouble with my internet connection, and I'm reasonably certain that it's my adsl filter that's the problem. However, my flat has four phone points and only one is connected, and it's behind a huge book case, meaning that should an engineer need to examine the connection, it's a day's work to move it,…

Currently paying £27.40, soon to be £28.90 for Phone M and Broadband L package. If I phone and "bluff" to cancel could I get a better deal - cheaper wise not offering a higher package.

Now I'm getting letters demanding £30.61 or a debt collection agency will get involved. When I called to cancel the contract I got told that the payment I will have to make is a 'cancellation fee',…
