Broadband quickest installation

saajan_12

Hi, 
Are there any broadband providers who can install / start before the 2.5 weeks I'm currently seeing? There's already a phone line in place, just need the broadband. 
I guess they're worried about the 14day cool-off period, but not really much different from other online retailers who have to deal with some returns. Besides, even wouldn't mind waiving the cool off if they'd let me!

Cannot answer your question but it sounds as though you are pretty desperate for broadband in which case you could try the BT Wi-Fi hotspots and see if there are any around you

you have to pay to access them I believe around £17.99 for 5 days or £39.99 for a month but it may be an option while you're waiting

ISP hand the work off to Open Reach  and it then depends upon what work needs to take place and staffing levels .Its not the 14 day cooling off .

Hotspot a phone or a cheap mobile dongle/modem and a monthly PAYG sim if you're desperate? Lebara for example have no ti in after 30 days

Thanks, Thats the plan. 
Some of these high data mobile sims are actually cheaper than the broadband + line rent. Will see how the speed compares in my area, but might keep this long term!
