If you have a broadband contract and want to cancel it before it is up then you may well have to pay the cost of the rest of your broadband contract.

There may be certain circumstances (such as moving home and broadband not available at new address) where you won't incur a charge for canceling your broadband but this is down to each individual broadband provider and what their terms & conditions state. We should note that if you are moving house and broadband is available where you are moving too then your broadband provider should be able to assist you with moving your broadband over to your new address.
