I can migrate to ASDL24 without a charge being applied from Plusnet?

Yes, as long as you migrate using a MAC and you tell PN you are going to do so within 10 days of receiving that email.

Because of the proposed changes you are free to terminate your contract early without penalty.

NB. A Plusnet MAC key can take up to 5 working days to be issued...

With the present system it shouldn't take anything like that long

That's good to know

It took the full 5 working days for a MAC key to issued to me about 18 months or so ago.

Its about 1-2 days I've had one before a couple of months ago.

Cheers people ...All this has really worked in my favor I didn't really want another 12 month contract with Plusnet, They put in in a position back in April because of the landline number change ,where I had no choice. the options were take another 12 month contract or pay something like £75 for my new number to be connected or
pay a £25 cease charge for leaving them. I could depute the fact they were forcing me into a new contract given the circumstances.

This is so much a easier way out. Joining ADSL24 will give me the same benefits as Plusnet with the 12am-8am unlimited download but also give me unlimited download from Fri 8pm till Mon 8am which Plusnet do not offer.

Given the fact it's only a 1 month contract with ADSL24 it gives me the freedom to switch suppliers when I want, You can see why me wants to do this in hoping I can find a better package.

personally I think the deal is better than the Plusnet one anyway

Careful - you may hit a problem
Yes you will get out of a 12 month contract but you almost certainly will still be liable for deferred charges which, in your case is free activation

And router?
