    Default Is this possible?

    Ok, I have AOL Broadband, 2meg plan, and the contract is well over the minimum. So i've looked on there site, and there is a "Wireless Plus PS3" offer, where you get a free Playstation 3, like the laptop offer but with a PS3. So anyway, it says when you sign up (new customer). Now i remember something like this before, where we were again, AOL customers, canceled after cnotract, and resigned to get the free wireless router offer (when it was new) and we registered as new customers. So would we be able to, cancel, and resign up, and register as new customers, so we could get the PS3 offer. Adding further, what if we registered in a different name (it's currently i my dad's name, but could go to my mam's).

    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Luke

    If its the same location again they could get suspicious of you renewing your connection everytime a new offer is open

    But i doubt they'd care as its more money in the pot. But they could sign you up and not give you it saying you were previous client, and then you're on another contract for a year or so

    Ha, with T-Mobile we did this, we could upgrade to some phone, or cancel and remake the contract and get a brand new super duper phone, usually if you say "fine we shall cancel and just remake" they will give in and just give you it. If not then just do it with another name.

    Well, the alst time i done it was 2 years ago, and this is the fourth year in total on AOL broadband, so..
    And, if they didn't send, i would cancel, because they'd say if they'd send it or not in the "Cooling down period".

    So yeh

    EDIT to Tawm. Yeh, they can't realy do anything if it's a different name, because, it could be like (story time), Mr Bob (current name registered)is at 12 street, cancels, then Mrs Bob (new name registered) could say, well i've just moved to 12 street and never had any AOL contract, or sometihng like that lol.

    I tihnk we'll try, and if they won't send, then cancel and find another good deal

    If you cancel you've not abided by the contract you signed

    no, theres something called a cooling down period, i tihnk it's 2 weeks, where if you're not happy, that's your chance to cancel it, litterally, it's a taster before the contract starts

    They will have thought of this, check their TOS, I bet if you cancel, it will mean giving the PS3 back.
