You might be lucky just calling again (and speaking to someone else) but you might not.
Bear in mind they're mostly on commission so they'll try not to give you discount and try to sign you up for more than you need/want. You can get this offer by opting for the lowest calls plan (the Unlimited Weekend Plan) and do not need to take broadband or TV.Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0 -
thanks a mill!0

Same issue here. No interest in taking me on as a customer unless I take the TV, land line and broadband package to get the free reconnection. £128 seems silly to reconnect, the wires are already there!
£35 connection charge for Virgin, and they said they would waver this after saying I would go to BT! :rotfl:0
