    I was happier with my service from BT than with anyone else. I decided to move and regretted it immediately and switched back within the cooling off period.

    If you tell BT that you are thinking of leaving, they will reduce their prices for you. Don't know what you're paying now but I'm paying 7.49 (less than that because of the VAT reduction) a month now for the lowest option which I'm more than happy with.

    I switched yesterday to 02 broadband, as they have had good reviews in various articles that I have read. They also have a 'free first month's rental' offer, valid until the end of March. Just as well, because I did not give my current internet provider 30 days notice, so I'll have to pay that.

    o2 is the same as Be Broadband whose service was absolutely excellent.

    BUT

    I had to pay there prices AND BT's stupid line rental so I had to ditch. Now saving money with Tiscali but who knows for how long.
    Save saynoto0870.com in your favorites, and stop giving companies more £££ dialling 0870 numbers when you can dial freephones or cheaper alternatives
    call your credit card company, tell them that you want to leave, 99% of the time theyll lower your APR%
    Remember when that Bank Manager or Salesperson smiles at you, all he sees is £ notes. Dont forget the motto, "the wider their grin, the more debt your in"

    Hi,
    I am interested to know what you are paying to BT, they keep phoning me up and are quoting £12.99 a month for a year's contract. I have just requested my MAC code to here's hoping!!
