Morning 
Had another bad night sleep 
Raining here 

I'm trying to cancel my broadband contract with plusnet and go with bt for the home essentials deal. Its cheaper 
I sent plusnet a message

Good Morning all.

@Amberpearl are you no longer in contract with Plusnet, if not then BT should take care of your switch and cancel on your behalf no worries. They are the same company after all but all major broadband providers have signed up to this scheme (with the exception of Virgin Media which is a tad more complicated).

@Amberpearl you’ll have to work out how much the plans will cost you in total over the term of 24 months or however long they are and decide whether it’s worth getting the voucher. However it’s worth remembering that ultimately the voucher is not really free, it has to be paid for and that will likely be by you, the customer.

@Amberpearl BT do the home essentials package its 20.00 a month if your on universal credit I get it just phone and talk to them I am glad I did 

Plusnet keep ringing me  with offers to. Stay. I don't know what to do. Man. Says I won't get a better deal. Offered me 21 pounds a month for 2 years and 51 to 60 speed 
Is that good?
I feel pressured

What I am saying is the voucher has to be paid for by someone, which is likely to be via higher costs to the customer i.e. if they didn't give you a voucher they could afford to charge you less per month.

By all means, though, if you do happen to find two deals that are the same price but one comes with a voucher and one doesn't, go for the one that gives you a voucher!

Hey everyone, not to bad today, had a siezure, but they come every day now, just a pain in the neck they are, i'm ok, spent some time in my star wars room, just chilling, moved a few pieces around and took a pic, see my other thread for pics,    hope everyone is doing ok

Alex_Alumni

Have you been able to speak to anyone from plusnet today @Amberpearl? Or have they left any messages on the answerphone?

And can you tell me, is there a friend or relative nearby who could help you with this?

pinklady25

The 20.00 plan I am on with bt won't change until I stop getting universal credit and you you get unlimited calls on the landline  and unlimited broadband  others give a low price then it goes up bt stays the same I have had it for threw years now same as gas snd electric you can get lower payments and with counciol tax
