When I bought my flat, there was a telephone point in there, so I presumed they would just reconnect me free of charge etc.......(I actually posted on here about it all), but they said no, they wanted the £124.99........and at this point Id read that that charge was for installing a new line etc in to a house/flat....and the guy said yeah, you get that charge as well if you needed a phone line installing etc, which I didnt, but I asked for a brand new one anyway seens im paying the same amount just to be connected, which he didnt find too amusing. So i decided not to pay it from the robbing c**ts.........anyway, a week later, I tried my luck again, but to no joy!! Then I think a week or so later, I got a bill for 3 months line rental, so I phoned up saying this must have been for the last owner etc, but it wasnt, it was for my line rental for the next 3 months........I asked about the £124.99 charge, but they hadnt charged me, so was quite good TBH
But generally they do charge it yes, but think I got lucky.
