For those with consumer BT Broadband, within the 'My BT' account portal I'm aware there are various promotional suggestions that you "Upgrade to EE Broadband" along with links that will take you to the EE website and also to a customised 'upgrade' offer to switch from BT to EE for your broadband service.
Setting aside for a moment the slightly muddled branding messages, and the concept of 'upgrading' from one brand (BT) to another (EE) - even if the underlying service remains the same...
BT Broadband currently has numerous incentive offers available via comparison and cashback sites, whilst EE Broadband doesn't feature anywhere. (I guess in so doing the idea is to preserve the integrity of EE as a 'premium brand'.)
Just thinking how feasible it'd be to sign up for BT Broadband, then once the reward card and/or cashback had been claimed/paid out - but still well within the contract period - to migrate the broadband over from BT to EE? (I appreciate this would start a new 24 month EE contract from the time of migration.)
I see someone else had the same idea and posted a question about it on the EE Community forums - which (unsurprisingly) elicited a non-answer from an EE bod, but nothing else:
