Broadband-Early Termination

Hello,

I am looking for some help selecting a broadband package, and the best deals are obviously contracts. However there is a chance I will move in with family in less than 12 months, and it is unlikely I will have to do anything other than cancel. Are there any providers that will not charge early termination charges in this instance? I will probably have to go for a no contract plan

Thank you!

    I managed to convince Vodafone's customer service team to waive an early termination fee a couple of years ago, I told them I was moving to a new property and the landlord had their own subscription so I couldn't take mine with me. But obviously there's no guarantee or obligation for them to do that for you.

    If it's 12 months or less, I would say Cuckoo. You can do rolling 30 day contracts, or 12 month contracts with them and they fix the price for 12 months (no March/April increase). I believe there was also another provider Gigaclear who does a 12 month contract. BT themselves do a 12 month contract as well, but at a higher price (with price rises).
