Yes, and if you have problem's and want to change to another supplier they then charge for if you don't change on your renewel date. This cost me £67 last month. they claim that they send a letter to remind you that your contract is renewing but i didn't recive it. good luck.

BT can also offer you £36 credit on your first/second bill for new customers . Call them and ask for Customer Options Team.


Also with BT you can use an indirect supplier like www.18185.co.uk to place some calls cheaper.Other suppliers dont have to allow access.

I know about 18185, but whats this £36 credit about for new customers?

I had problems tracking down the right department. Got put on hold so gave up. Lady on option 1 didn't know anything about the offer.

Try again until you get someone that does know

No you can only get the offer by calling BT customer options team (same people that give the £36.00 credit).

It is a 12 month auto renewable contract like the evening and weekend offer.

0800800030 option 1 to get it but you have to ask for it.

The message on this 0800 number says "If you're calling to cancel your broadband or request a MAC code press 1".

So instead I called 150 and asked to be put through to the Customer Options Team. The person there didn't know about the £36 credit and £3.99 for Anytime deals. They only knew about a £24 credit (£2 per month). They went away for a long time to try to find info about the £36 deal, but were unable to do so.

Questions:
1. Is that 0800 number, and then choosing Option 1, really the right people to speak to, despite it saying that it's for broadband cancellation and MAC code requesting?

2. How do I find someone who knows about the £36 credit + £3.99Anytime deals?

Thanks!

A few calls later, I'm being told by Customer Options that the £36 credit is no longer being offered.

The best they can offer is a £24 credit and Anytime for £3.99 per month.

So, overall, effectively £3 saving per month, not a £4 saving per month (which a £36 credit + £3.99 Anytime would equate to).

Is anyone currently being offered any better than that by BT?

Thanks!

I have just been on the phone to BT and the system is down but she said the deal they could over me was the anytime package at a monthly rate of £4.99 and a credit of £36.00.But i would have to phone back later when the system was back up.
Doesn't seem a bad deal as the anytime cost would over the 12 months work out at £1.99
