Moving out, moving to air bnb waiting for our purchase, broadband provider trying to enforce a disconnection fee?
Our house sale has sped up and is now going to happen quicker than our purchase (if we delay we will lose the buyer and we've been on the market for 2 years) so we're moving into air bnb temporarily
We've broadband with Vodafone, spoke with them today, explained the situation, offered to keep paying each month and then reconnect in our new property once we move in
Their only solutions are
\- Pay a disconnection fee / rest of contract (c£400)
\- Get the buyers to promise not to disconnect the Internet once they move in and us pay for it
Wondering what everyone's thoughts are, we surely can't be the only people the the country who have gaps between properties given the market at the moment and I'm sure everyone isn't just coughing up hundreds to their broadband provider?
