Retaining Email Address

We have just signed up with Talk Talk to be our phone and broadband provider and have cancelled our contract with BT.

Will we loose out BT email addresses or will be still be able to access them using Yahoo as we can do at present.

  • My BT email (and website) is still working fine over a year after I moved to O2. In theory you are meant to dial in every 90 days, or pay 1.50 a month, but that appears not to be necessary. But don't assume it will be there for ever.

    Likewise my old email address has been working for ten years .
    But you may not be able to send via that email address and will need to set-up to send via current ISP receive OK . You of course have no comeback if you are suddenly forbidden access to the old account .
