Big decision decision for me as tomorrow is deadline last day for either leaving plusnet or staying with new agreement deal.

@ Ignitionnet What is your main reason of leaving plusnet?

That's be £30 fee! U probably get plusnet FTTC to pluse8 ADSL at first!

It's FTTC to FTTC.

I'm fine with actually paying for a reasonable service.

The migration fee is part of that. They are charged it by BT, I'd either be paying it across a contract period or upfront. They have no contract period so upfront it is.

I'll pay more; you can obviously choose instead to spend your time on here complaining about your service. Your call.

The reason I wasn't sure of joining pulse8 because pulse8 are not sure if plusnet fttc to pulse8 fttc will be accepting by BT. As they told me they will migration from plusnet fttc to pluse8 adsl at first then wait for 24 hours then regrade to fttc but this has put me off ordered it.

Do let me know next week if your plusnet fttc to pulse fttc is all went successful. I be very surprise if this wasn't the case!

BT FTTC to TT FTTC will not work! As BT Wholesale will rejected it.

It wont be due to BTW but due to talk talk's systems and more importantly the way they have been configured, All because they seem unable to place a re-provide order with BT openreach , so a FTTC migration from BTWBMC to openreach GEA, Which requires engineering work to be carried out at the exchange such as being connected to the LLU ISP's GEA cable links, that they buy/lease from BTOR
But the inept method used by these bunglers would mean a lot more work, as to be able to recieve ASDL on a FTTC enabled line, the jumpers would have to be removed, So the line could connect D/side & E/side unfiltered so the ADSL signal could be recieved by your modem

The danger for some would be loosing the port that they are currenly on, if their cab is nearly at capacity or is at capacity , So any subsequent order for adsl to FTTC would fail, should there be no ports available

Updated: Adam from Pulse8 have confirmed that any order migration from plusnet fttc to pulse8 fttc will be accepting by openreach but it will be charged £30 fee for the work by the engineer to switch from plusnet residential to talktalk business. Migration will take 7 working days to completed.

At last from the horses mouth, So they can to WBMC = (Plusnet or any other BTW based ISP)>>OR GEA FTTC migration without issues, The migration fee is common place amongst providers,

That engineering work is not done at the exchange, it's done remotely, and is actually a configuration change on the DSLAM.

This is not a migration from something else to Openreach GEA regardless. All providers consume Openreach GEA to supply FTTC.

Strangely mine seemed to work fine.

Ahh.. so you are migrating from Plusnet FTTC > TalkTalk LLU without having to do the ADSL step in between, Yes?

The £30 fee is fair.... It is the charge for migrations at a Wholesale level of course!

I would be skeptical if they didn't charge it based on their being no contracts that is!
