    What are your LLU options? Otherwise impossible to say without knowing what exchange you're on.
    PS: where do you get a price of £12.99 for BT Option 1 from?

    OK, so what are your LLU options? They'll generally be the cheapest deals.

    No, we meant the area name of the exchange!
    Broadband is exchange dependent. Not all ISP's are on all exchanges, and not all can offer the same deals on all exchanges.

    Warrenpoint unfortunately has no LLU providers at present (probably because it's a small and rural exchange), so you're stuck with an ISP providing BT Wholesale services.
    All their prices are likely to be on a par with BT, since they are just reselling the BT service.

  • Hi, Quick question, what does the statement mean???
    "BT have set a target date of Q3 2009 for the switch to 21CN for the Wemyss Bay exchange"


    Many thanks
