Leaving charge

I had been waiting the last 4-5  years for Fibre to my home , got a mail  from BT  " good news we are now able to provide a fibre connection to your home " so I signed up .

IMHO I was mislead  I lost the free calls and spam blocking and then they raised the monthly charge , I'm a pensioner on state pension only no other income and due to the overall increase in the general cost of living I cannot afford £85 + a month so like a lot of people I shopped around and found something  I could afford but not from EE/BT now I have been told it will cost me £1023 to leave it's outrageous but before anyone points anything out I'm 71 that's my age not my IQ and I'm aware of leaving fees .


My ? Is will EE try and take the whole amount with the final monthly charge because there isn't enough in my account to cover all of it  or can I negotiate and make smaller monthly payments ?

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi @Aukmune 

Welcome to the community.

I see @XRaySpeX has answered your question. The termination fee would need to be paid in full, if you leave early.

Have you spoken with our Customer Support team? Our guides will be able to look over your account and try to give you some advice and see if there are any savings to be made anywhere.
