Moving Home with BT: How to avoid cancellation charges?

Hi,
I currently have BT phone and broadband and I'm having to move in with relatives for a time while I relocate.

My phone contract expires in September and the BB expires in February next year. BT want me to pay £155 cancellation charges, but all I want to do is suspend my account with them till I get my own home. Is there a way I can avoid these charges?

Thanks :)

    With BT, no chance what soever, can either of them be transferred to your new address.

    If you want to cancel you'll have to pay their charges.
