Hi Just looking for confirmation that this is possible (been advised by BT that its not)
Can I have the line rental in my name and a separate broadband contract in someone elses name at the same address?
thanks

With BT you get a combined bill so it has to be on the same name afaik
If you go with someone other than BT for the broadband you can put whatever name on it that you want0 -
The Bt line I use is for a flatmate while I pay o2 broadband on thesame line.You can't keep a good man down...0

Back at my "parents address" the phone line is in my name and the broadband is in my mothers name...i originally had the phone line in my name a few months later she signed up to broadband online and used her name... that was about 2 years ago and BT have never enquired about the different names."Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone, and do not be troubled about the future, for it has yet to come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering"0
