BT - 12 Month Contract + Moving Home

Hi All,
I know BT contracts have been discussed at legnth, but couldn't find any situation exactly like mine.
Basically I signed up to the BT Evenings and Weekends package on the 12-month renewable contract, and got the letter a month ago saying you will automatically be signed up for another 12 months, which was fine. Since then I now have to move house, and the property I'm moving to does not have a BT line. I spoke to BT and the options they gave were; to spends a load of money paying for the remaining months on the contract OR spends a load of money getting a line installed.
Ideally I would like a BT line so I can continue my broadband. Does anyone have any clever ideas to avoid paying a load of money, is there a way of getting BT to pay for the install?
Thanks in advance!

If you're happy to agree to an 18 month contract for the line rental, BT have a £29.99 installation offer available.

Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0
