Broadband in new flat

What do you have to do if you move in a new flat and you want broadband? Current bb provider with bt expires at the end of the month which is handy as daughter is moving in a new flat at the end of the month. Does she need to ask for a mac code, also she is not sure whether the phone line is connected in the new flat!! Any recommendation for a new bb provider, please?Thanks

    1st job is a phone line, then samknows.com and see which LLU providers are available, then work out bandwidth requirements, whether privacy is a concern (phorm) and budget, and.....

    biggest issue may be contract length, many isps (not all!) insist on 12-18 month contracts

    I am with BT option 1 for phone and bb. I am moving into a flat next week. I intend to ring BT and ask for my phone account to be moved to my new address. I intend to cancel my broadband with bt, do I need to ask for a MAC? I want to go with 02 and wonder whether I need a MAC? Or will it be better if I cancel everything with BT and then start a new account at the new address. Thanks
