Changing Broadband Provider

If I'm changing Broadband provider and wish to keep my login, how do I achieve this?

What do you mean by "keep my login"? Login to what?

If by your "login" you mean [email protected] then if you leave someone.co.uk your "login" will cease to be (unless you come to an arrangement with isp-someone co uk before you leave).

It is to avoid sudden changes in e-mail addresses resulting from ISP changes that some of us register our own domains, which we can point at whichever ISP we happen to be using at the time. if I change ISP (and I have done, several times) most folks don't even know I've changed.

Having been caught in that trap a few times, I now rely a bit more on Gmail & Yahoo.
