9.99 Line Rental Cold Call
I failed to get company details from this person - I could repeat the company name he claimed to be representing, but I hesitate because I can't believe a legitimate company would sink to this level and I can only find one provider with a similar name and I don't want to damage the reputation of the wrong company. (It is…

Why Have BT Closed 1571 Online?
I have just discovered to my annoyance that BT have cancelled (without any notice apparently) the 'listen online' service that used to be available free with 1571. As far as I can see this is not even available as a premum service either now. I used this facility to check my Mum's messages for her, as she can't manage…

hope someone can offer advice, got home 1 hour ago, tried to use landline but can't dial out. Caller display shows a call from 1 1/2 hours ago, think they must have left the phone off the hook as this has happened several times now in the last few months plus the broadband still works! :confused:

BT 12 month rolling contract - hard to escape?
Hi all I just wanted some advice on BT's "rolling contract". My understanding is at the end of the 12 month contract, you're automatically put onto another 12 month contract. Is this the case? If so, is it difficult to swap providers? When my contract runs out (in September) I'd like to swap to Tiscali/talk talk (or…

TalkTalk VAT
I am in a running battle with TalkTalk over their policy on VAT. Although my call charges have been reduced to reflect the reduction in VAT, the £15 a month I pay for Broadband has not. It seems that I had to apply before end Jan to take advantage of their "offer" to pass on the VAT reduction. But I could only find this…
