When to switch

Hello,

I'm just coming to the end of my contract with BT and was on the phone today with plusnet as I have decided to change over my internet over to them.

Plusnet wanted a payment there and then but I said that I didn't want to do this as my final BT payment comes out my bank on Jan 23rd and it will be like paying for my internet twice.

Will it be better to wait till my contract ends on Feb 7th and make the payment then ( plusnet wanted £5.99 for p@p for the router and the month upfront)

Any help appreciated :)

    Why post this twice? Answered on your other thread.
    PS: your BT contract doesn't 'end'. it just reaches the end of it's minimum term and then continues until you give notice.

    If you already have a newish working router, it's not worth getting the Plusnet router. It's a bargain basement special

    It is if the OP's existing router is firmware locked to BT.
