BT yahoo how do I get to it?

Just got installed today with BT broadband and phone and the guy who installed it didn't install the disk that came with it so how do I get into my BT yahoo email account?

Have to say the broadband is mega and am getting around 75Meg but not sure on how long it will stay like that!!!!

    If you type btyahoo into google you will get to the page where you can login.

    www.mail.yahoo.com for email
    www.btyahoo.com for any extras such as net protect

    you do not need the disk as it will only add some software to your pc.

    And that software is just useless bloatware.
    BT OR engineers do not install anything on your PC. BT Yahoo is simply accessed via your web browser, all you need is you u/n and password.

  • The BT Yahoo setup is basically cr*p anyway, and is best ignored.

    Get a Gmail account, and set up Google Chrome as your browser and you'll be much better off.

    It's a bad idea to use a email address provided by your broadband provider as it makes switching a pain.

    No ISP will install any disc software on your PC as it could leave them open to claims for damaged equipment UNLESS it's a requested managed install & in that case you will be asked to sign a disclaimer absolving the ISP from any problems arising from their softwares use.
