BT End of Contract

Options
I realise this is a stupid question, but my BT contract was for 2 years starting on 4th November 2020.  I want to move to Vodafone and they want me to say when I want my broadband to start.  If I say 4th November 2022, will I incur an early cancellation fee from BT?  I'd like it to be the 4th as Vodafone don't work on Saturdays and I don't want to wait until the 7th!

    Exit fees are pro-rated, so by this point it's less than a month's worth of charges.
    Your contract ends on the 7th, there is no penalty free switch window like you see in energy.
  • Personally I'd request the switch to be the 7th because it's a Monday, just in case of problems that are more likely to be sorted on a weekday if it extends over a couple of days.

    Any extra charges from BT will be minimal and sorted out in the final bill.
