Bloody BT & Orange!!

[Stu_B]

Just got our phone line connected at home & started looking for a broadband provider, decided to go with orange for £24 a month cos they cover your BT line rental.... Do they fook!! They become your new provider & BT charge you £70 for ending the contract early!! I wouldn't mind but we don't even have a phone, just wanted broadband. I phoned Orange & they said they can cancel the homephone & we can go back to BT (who 'might' charge us £125) but we'll then have to pay £20 for broadband to Orange & £11 to BT for line rental.

I'm sure all this was said in the smallprint from Orange but I didn't set it up my housemate did! So now I have to go home & read all the shit they sent us to find out whether I can kick up a fuss or not!!

Bloody pissed off though!

Bummer mate.

 

For what it's worth I'd recommend Talktalk I think I pay about £17 a month inclusive of BB, line rental, and free calls at evening and weekends, with free international calls to many countries 24/7. It was a pain initially getting it working during the change over, but all's well now
