Hi
My contract with AOL ends on the 4th October and I'm seriously thinking about transfering to O2 - how soon do I apply for my MAC code and approach O2 to start with them?
Also at the end of the contract with AOL will my broadband just be disconnected - how much notice do I have to give to AOL?
Do I have to send my router back to them?
Lots of questions but advice appreciated.
Cheers
Cres

You can have a MAC at anytime, but AOL will still charge you up to the 4th October.0 -
A MAC is valid for 30 days, so if you apply for it now it will still be valid until after 3/10. You will need to give AOL 30 days notice. Your contract does not end on 3/10, it just reaches the end of the minimum term, so if you do not use your MAC and migrate then your AOL contract will continue until you cancel it. You would need to check your T& C's about returning the router.No free lunch, and no free laptop0
