If the service isn't upto scratch
write to them stating this and ask them for a MAC. You should get it within 5 days. Also state that becasue the service isn't fit for it's purpose you will not be paying any admin/cancelation fees.
I'm 99% sure they have to give you a MAC now even if they want you to pay an admin fee any you haven't.

The provider cannot withhold a MAC for the purposes of debt collection, or for contractual reasons

This way at least you can get your BB moved then fight them over the £50
If they want to chase you for it then explain to them that thet are not entitled to it as the service didn't work properly.
This site give you good info:

Also if you're not getting anywhere with them ring their arbitrators (the info in on their site somewhere) and get them to take the case on.

You're not forced to pay anything like that if the service is rubbish - and for £50 I'd like to see them take it to court.
