Long explanation coming up, so bear with me 
I am currently with BT ADSL (no fibre here). My ADSL contract expires in 2 weeks time.
I also have BT mobile, as I have both I get the BT mobile SIM only deal a bit cheaper as well. This contract is still in effect until november-ish.
I am paying at the moment:
1. Line Rental at £18.99/month (I use the line rental saver to make it a little cheaper).
2. ADSL Broadband at £10.25/month after discount.
3. BT Mobile SIM-only deal at £8/month (saving £5/month due to being an ADSL customer).
Having just rung BT they have been able to offer me:
12 month contract at £16/month for the ADSL
24 month contract at £10/month for the ADSL.
The price is fine on the 24 month option, but 24 months is a horribly long contract to be in, and I may wish to move in the next couple of years.
I'm considering switching to plus.net for a year instead. They currently have a new customer deal which is:
12 month contract at £20/month, which includes the line rental, and £50 cashback, but I pay £6.99 for P&P of equipment.
This should save me a good deal of cash each month, even if my BT mobile goes up by a fiver a month until I can get a new contract deal on that.
Has anyone switched to plus.net under similar circumstances? How did it go is so? I'd assume the service would be the same as I have now, as BT own plus.net as well.
My BT service has been fine tbh, so no complaints there from me.
