Keeping your existing email address
I am considering having all my eggs in one basket ie TV Phone and internet with BT. I currently have a freeserve email address and wish to keep it to avoid telling everyone of my change. Would BT permit that? and if not is there any way of avoiding the hassle?

Either they change a fee for the address or they rely on advertising when you go there, or maybe sell your data on. An ISP is unlikely to say, "Yes we'll keep providing a service for someone no longer a paying customer."
Swopping TO BT.... best of luck.

@prudie - tiscali, now part of talktalk, turn off email addresses for ex-customers pretty quickly (weeks rather than months).
As MR says, either get a proper .co.uk address for a few pounds a year or take a (small) risk and get a gmail one from google - the risk being that they can (and very occasionally do) just decide to terminate your gmail account and because it's a free service you have no comeback.
