BT Broadband + credit card

pjrobertson

Hi there,

Has anybody taken advantage of the deal BT seem to be offering at the moment:

Get £40 off your BT bill**
Take out a BT Credit Card after you order broadband and get £40 off your BT bill with your first card purchase.
16.5% APR typical rate (variable)

see: productsandservices.bt.com/consumerProducts/displayCategory.do?categoryId=CON-TOTAL-BB-R1&s_intcid=con_intban_overview_BB_home
(sorry can't post linke yet)

The terms and conditions seem to say you only have to use the card once to claim your £40.

Has anybody used this, or know of any small print that I'm not reading up on?
Is it really this simple to claim the £40 back?!

Thanks Linda, I've seen that in the small print at the bottom of the page.
Is that really all there is?

Thanks utilitybroker,

I hadn't seen that offer. We'll probably only be going for Option 1 which only gives £35. It says for 'existing Plus BT credit card customers' so it looks like you still have to sign up for a credit card.


A good heads up!
