Don't touch BT i ordered this similar deal awhile ago was meant to be installed on the 16th and had nothing but problems I'm on the phone all the time to indian call centres who feed me crap even speaking to a manager gets you nowhere but " i'll call you back in a week" its never tomorrow always a week later. I'm about to cancel all direct debts with them if nothing is sorted by this week, looking at reviews this is always happening.
(don't use BT if you are in a new build as well it won't be sorted on the promised date as if you need outside work it will probably never happen.)

Exactly the same thing happened to me last year. The call centre is absolute torture.

Could be worse, at least you're not with talktalk

Can't comment on the call centre, but I got Sky in my new build a year ago and had issues with needing outside work (took 3 months to connect my phone line...), but this was down to BT Openreach, which is totally separate to BT Broadband. So even if you went with another provider, you would probably of had the same issues (joys of a new build!).
I have now switched to BT on a similar deal to this a month ago, had no issues at all.

Totally agree.

I moved to a new build last month and my line went in without a problem on the expected day.
But wouldnt matter whether you used BT or not as it would have been the same Openreach engineer regardless of service provider unless its a cable area

Agreed, do not use BT for new build houses. I had an absolute nightmare.

Yes, terrible company. Had nothing but problems since it was installed in January.

I think BT are great, always helpful and understanding if unforeseen things happen, just renewed contract, still prefer sky's service/product but loving amc and bt sports channels.

Mine gets fitted on Monday, hope all goes well.

Oh yeah they are good delivering the router, however it is completely useless when they fail to connect your actual service.

Make sure you have a back up (4G or something) in case BT does not manage to install a working broadband on the installation date (which will most likely be the case).
When BT broadband got installed in my place, I router was sent to me well in advance but they only managed to install a working broadband connection after 20 days (during which they missed 3 engineer visits, lies upon lies that the broadband will come on by the end of the day (for every day that I called the customer service).............no broadband service at all). Once installed, however, the service has been fine (for 9 months now).
All the best.

Mine transferred very smoothly no issues, loads of SMSs of updates including time of activation I was already on talktalk fiber though, if your new to fiber they have to send someone to the box on the curb which left me without service for a few days when I moved to talktalk fiber from Sky adsl.
Infinity activation charge is a bit of a sneaky fee, as I would expect this should only be charged if a engineer needs to go to the curb side box.

How reliable is the Quidco cashback it's a shame the 76Mb broadband is very expensive or would have went for that.

I have been on BT infinity for donkeys. Of a max speed of 76MB, I get 62-65 and have suffered no disconnections. Every year I ring up, threaten to leave and get a discount. Yesterday I got my monthly charge dropped from £25.65 to £18.75.
Personally I can't fault them.

I took similar deal up in may with pure vise card, no sign of card yet and I had to keep chasing them for my pure visa card because they don't get back to you. All you get is a automated message saying they are investigating and then never here from them again. And the same cycle continues. I'm still without the visa card and they hiked my price just after a month even though I signed up a 12 month contract at certain price. But phone line and bb is good.
