moving home with BT

Hi everyone,
I'm currently with BT broadband option 1 and BT phone option 3 (anytime inc calls) I move home in March and my aim is to move over to Sky BB and Sky Talk (already have Sky+TV) but my BT Broadband 18month contract is not up till May. If I move with BT to my new home will they make me do another 18 months from the date I move or will the current contract still only run till May OR should I just move and join Sky Broadband and Sky Talk (might be tricky cos of landline rental?) I expect BT will also want to charge me for the remaining 2 months if I switch to Sky before May.
What do you guys think?
Many thanks in advance for any advice or thoughts.
Kind regards
Bella:confused:

    For broadband "If we continue the service at your new address, the rest of your minimum period or a new three-month minimum period will apply, whichever is greater", for voice "If we continue the service at your new address you will be subject to a new minimum period from the date we provide service at your new address."

  • Thanks Deklan99, any idea what the 'voice' minimum period would be? Is it worth just ditching BT when I move and pay the remaining 2 months and join Sky BB and Talk when I get to new home? Or would this be complex as the landline in new home is currently BT and flat has been empty for some months.
    kind regards
