I'd be almost certain that you'd have a load of grief doing this.

Quote from: itsme If TT is just a reseller of BT phone, the same as PN, there should not be a problem but I believe that now TT have their on telephony equipment and I believe there is no mechanism for LLU phone with a third party broadband. For LLU you can have.
1. Phone only
2. Broadband with BT phone
3. Phone and Broadband
thanks for the reply, i just cant take the chance, even though i dont game online as much as i did, it drives me bonkers if my bb goes to pieces, i could get pnone and bb from TT for £27 a month both unlimited and through bt and pn separately it costs me about £35, but i know that works, would go nuts being tied up t a 12 month contract if the bb was less than i was getting now
cheers

Quote from: pierre_pierre and you could change your phone to PN, it might be cheaper than BT
hi thanks for reply, it would be but i mentioned to bt that i was thinking of changing and they put my line rental down and only charge me 7.2p per min for mobiles, also my bb would go up as well as i am on an old package
glad i asked and also checked the web as i was almost sold on TT phone, i'll have another think in 12 months
thanks to all for replies and advice

Quote from: pierre_pierre you dont have to change your BB to get PN phone, thats just how they sell it to new customers
oh ok, i think it was the cost of calling mobiles that put me off as well, i think i was originally looking into trying to lump my bb and phone together to save money, cant remember exactly i compared about 4 or 5 comapnies and it was the fear of losing my bb connection that was playing on my mind

Was looking at TalkTalk but 18 month contract for phone and 24 for BB a bit risky as there are so many horror stories and hate the pressure sales tactics.
What BT package/rental were you on and did you have to take a 12 or 18 month contract to get an improved price/package? I am on BT anytime monthly contract so want to make some savings.
Tried phoning them on 150 and took a long time of pressing option 1, etc... and gave up due to time restraints and they say it's good to talk but don't talk - the machines do!

pressure sales tactics is an understatement, i probably have 30 missed calls over 2 days from TT, spoke to a right pushy cow last night who wouldnt clear off but she insited that my BB connection would be 11meg not the 8 meg i get now through pn even though my bt speed test shows i sync at 8meg or whatever it is, its the maximum you can get with an 8meg connection, she says they have different hardware in my local exchange and guarantees an unthrottled 11meg connection as that what her speed tester shows, i am not changing but would like to know if this is true for when she phones back.
i was on the evening and weekend calls with bt and am changing to anytime with the mobiles at 7.2 p, i told them that sky had offered me £5 / month rental which they did so BT offered me a credit of £36 off the line rental off my first bill which makes it just over £10/month and i have changed to their free 1571 answer service rather than the more expensive option i had, this is a 12 month contract
i think the number you need to ring is 0800 3457309 option 1 which is the' i'm thinking of cancelling' and you even get to speak to someone this side of the equator, tell them you are thinking of changing to sky or TT
cheers
