so ive gone with the post office how have told me its free to connect! sorry just a little rant

home owning tough innit mate, Its goin to get harder too sean, Wait till your bills start rolling in, it feels like your physically folding money, and shoving it down the drain !

yea mate already doing it!!!! just a piss take tho £122 to flip a switch! Grrrrs

I know, and they are moaning about a £500,000,000 profit fall from last year.......I wonder why?

They reconnected mine a couple of years ago for free

It depends what they have done with the line whilst it has been disconnected. It can as simple as re-activating it, though it can involve some work in re-wiring the connection in the concentrator (Those green boxes you see on main roads)

well it was with talk talk b4, and the broad band was on the llu system, but surly it aint that had to switch back??

If your going to Sky for TV and broadband, then if you ring SKY's customer service, you can usually get SKY to pay for re-connection of a BT line. they dont actually give you the capital upfront but credit your SKY account so that it discounts of your future bills.

could'nt get sky to play ball with that one. maybe as im on staff discount they wouldnt
