thanks will try phoning them and see if they will let us keep this and add on home phone and we would go back to them on mobile aswell if they give us a decent phone but i will make sure that we state we dont want to move on to the new contract

can only ask

If you add on Home Phone you have no option but to move to new packages. You are better off staying with BT for phone.

oh ok thanks i thought someone said earlier they were allowed to keep their old package and add home phone

to be honest i dont really like the idea of a constantly renewing one year contract with bt as we are probably going to get a tv package eventually and it would make it hard to change.

i might need to think about how much we actually download 20gb would probably be enough as we dont download much....

to much to think about will talk to my other half thanks

might move to primus for home phone its only £8 and only a one year contract

The main problem is the traffic shaping on this tariff.

You do realise that primus is also on a rolling yearly contract?

Plus you will pay £2.50 for Caller Display.

What £10.60 tariff? Do you mean £13.60?

i dont know i baisically said i was leaving when the 27th came and i was offered £10.60 a month on a year long rolling contract. i had to leave for work but just phoned them back and the second guy i spoke to knew about this rate

i said about the line rental option and was told id then need to pay £3 a month for evening and weekend

Possibly a retentions rate. I was given a £36 credit to stay with them - that would amount to £3pm but it was given as a one-off credit.

Either that or you are paying £120 up front for their Linesaver option?

i said about the line rental option and was told id then need to pay £3 a month for evening and weekend

So that would be £13.60 for E&W calls included then? Your previous post said £10.60 with E&W - which is it?

Sorry - I got mixed up with your use of line rental option when you really meant Line Saver option.

again i will now pay £10.60 for evening weekend calls and line rental

Good for you. Have you changed your mind now about rolling contracts?
