Default Change of ISP



Hello Newsgroup

I am currently deciding whether to change service providers to go to BT
Broadband. With my current provider that being Blueyonder i can get a phone
line added as part of my package.

I was wondering including line rental and BT Broadband what the cost
difference would be. If there is anyone here that has that package can you
let me know whether on basis of cost it is worth changing to.

On a BT line, you can choose a range of ADSL ISP's - not just BT Broadband.

Most require you to have an active BT line and BT's cheapest line
rental(that you can get ADSL on) is called Option 1 and is £10.50/month

If you're changing from cable broadband, remember you'll have to pay BT a
line rental for the fone line. You can get ADSL broadband from a lot of
suppliers, not just BT
Also remember, if you are currently using a router on cable, it won't be
much use with ADSL ;-)
