Switch from BT to Plusnet
Switching from BT to Plusnet is one of the easiest switches you can make - same network, lower prices, minimal disruption.
Why This Switch is Easy
Both BT and Plusnet use the Openreach network, which means the physical infrastructure delivering your broadband doesn't change. You're essentially just changing billing and support providers.
Ironically, Plusnet is owned by BT, so you're really just moving between BT brands. But Plusnet operates independently with their own pricing and customer service team.
The One Touch Switch system makes this automatic - sign up with Plusnet and they handle everything, including cancelling BT.

- ✓Compare Plusnet Deals: Choose a package that matches your needs.
- ✓Sign Up with Plusnet: They'll handle the switching process.
- ✓One Touch Switch: Automatic - no need to contact BT.
