Why is everyone so anti-BT? What is wrong with having a contract?…

Do you have to have BT or Virgin to use other phone providers?
Are BT and Virgin the only people you can get a phone line with? (As in the actual connection). We currently have Virgin for phone, TV and internet, but quite simply they're charging us too much (more than on their website) and the service is rubbish. Looking into other providers (and will try to negociate with Virgin) but…

Annoying calls.
I received a silent phone call from number 08450554454. I googled it and it turns out to be from Kitchens Direct. Anyone else had calls from them? When you answer the phone, it's dead quiet at the other end. Here's a way to get revenge: Use a public phone box and call them on 0800123321 and tell them what's on your mind!
