Switching Home Phone Providers?

Hey Guys just joined,

Want some advice i mean im a techie guy so know some things. But in your mind and experiences what would you say to this.

Just moved from Pipex/Talk Talk phone line to BT will activate on the 6th September, they say they will swap over everything but do you think i will get 2 bills or do they sort out everything and contact Pipex for me to transfer everything.

Would you personally double check with Pipex i know there horrendous.

    They should do but, of course, Talk Talk have loads of previous for billing customers who thought they'd escaped.

    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.

    Inform TT and make sure you cancel your DD after you receive their final bill.

  • Thanks! I remeber last time i moved i recieved a letter from Toucan who are Pipex who are Talk Talk now saying thank for joining. Do you think they would charge me?
  • Guys just so im clear the bill before 6th September when BT say they will activate the line. Cancel from Pipex? On DD ? You couldnt have 2x line rentals running simultaneously so i assume will be fine?
