Surely trade descriptions act must come into play here? Seen their ads on billboards and bus stops etc.

'Free' broadband as long as you pay them £40 So it's not free then

Only £40 activation if you aren't on an easynet unbundled exchange OR take the basic service which is 'free' monthly .

Mine was free. Easynet exchange , Max service

http://www.samknows.com/broadband/checker2.php tells you if you are on an unbundled exchange.

Orange rang me the other day offering "free" broadband as long as as I signed a new 18 month £30 a month contract,and if I defaulted on a payment or cancelled the contract I would have to pay £30 a month for every "free" month I had until that point

Also you get a huge 2gb a month limit They even suggested I buy out my current broadband contract to join this crock of ****e.
