Hi all, PLEASE I need your help :mad: !

I ordered a new BT line 3months ago on a 12 months contract but wish to change to SKY because of unlimited broadband.

At the moment, I have 9 months left on BT contract.

Will BT charge me line rental for the remaining 9months after switching to Sky. I only want to pay line rental to SKY and NOT BT. Sky won't give me broadband UNLESS I have skytalk.

Many thanks,
Arsene :o

    They'll charge you whatever the ETC is for each contract you have with them a) line rental and calls b) broadband (if you already have BT broadband).
    You can find out how much within the T&C's for your particular tariff.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    You can work out the charges using this table
    ETC
    Find your package and multiply by the months remaining

    they will charge you for the rental, by the way sky broadband is very slow and overpriced. O2 is much better.
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
