BT line rental and phone, Tesco BB

loops298

Hi with the imminent sale of Tesco BB to Talk Talk I am looking to change my BB provider (possibly PlusNet, and yes I know they are a sub of BT).

How difficult will it be to do as I have two different providers? I was considering amalgamating into one provider for ease when there are line issues, to avoid the blame culture associated with different suppliers.

Many thanks

Line issues only one supplier that's BT Open Reach .Apart from cabled areas .

No problem combining apart from making sure both contracts are ended or paid off .

If you don't have any line issues and are happy to use TalkTalk support forums you won't have any problems with TT....after all Talktalk has more than 4 million customers. People would leave TT in droves If their network was that bad no matter how cheap they are. As orange found out a few years ago due to their poor LLU network...

My main was concern is about the transfer. As I currently have two providers, if I were to contact another provider for them to take over the whole contract, would they deal with contacting the other two providers or would I have to do that?

I am sure that TalkTalk offer a reasonable service, as they are still in business, but I prefer to choose who I use rather that having one foisted on me. I was already in the process of looking for someone new when the news came out about Tesco's sale. And I also prefer service providers that have UK based call centres.
