Does anyone know what the situation is with a BT line which has
recently (last month) been disconnected and then reconnected?

I know the previous tenant in my flat had BT broadband. Having just
reconnected the line, and been given a different telephone number, can
I get a MAC code and migrate to another broadband provider. Or am I
doomed to pay £40-50 broadband activation fee?

Some ISPs waive the £50 if you remain with them for 3 or 6 months -
the time dependant on which package you use/pay for.

For instance

You have to pay. You were not the previous user so cannot migrate.
