BT to Post Office switch, Voicemail & Caller ID

Hi, My BT 12 months line rental saver is coming to an end and I'm considering switching to the Post Office 12 months line saver.

The basic saving will only be £21 but with BT now charging for caller ID and voicemail the Post Office is looking more attractive.

Can anyone confirm that the Post Offices caller ID & voicemail is totally inclusive/free? i.e. I don't need to make a minimum no of outgoing calls or have to pay to retrieve voicemails etc?

I rarely make outgoing calls on my landline but would like to maintain caller ID & voicemail for incoming calls.

If I switch I assume it will not affect my broadband supply (I'm with a pay monthly ISP).

Finally how long does the switch from BT to Post Office landline normally take?

Thanks.
