  • No worry.

    Your line rental is £33 inc VAT, thats the cheapest you can get unless you go for online billing which will knock 50p a month off.

    The BB you can get down to £38.97 a quarter (£14.99 regrade plus COT £2 discount) in exchange for a new 12 month contract.

  • Cheers for that.

    Would the broadband be unlimited and could we get things like BT vision etc?

  • You should be able to gte the vision (assuming your speed is high enough). Its not unlimited, but if you have been geting by on 5gig I dont see why to change unless you expect a serious change in internet habits.

  • Drunkstar,

    Unfortunately I upgraded to Option 3 at £24.99 about 3 weeks ago. Is it worth me ringing up as a "disgusted" saying friends (like gavvallance!) had got it cheaper and could I have my £5 back?
  • Afraid not, sorry mate.

    Curse you, BT!
  • Drunkstar - Is it worth using the "Aol give you a free PS3" excuse to get a better deal?

    Currently pay about £40 per month for line rental (option 3 anytime) and broadband option 1. Plus about £20 per month in calls. Can't save much on calls but the line rental and broadband i can get down to £24 per month with Sky, Tiscali or TalkTalk. Could BT offer anything similar?

    Hi Drunkstar

    I with BT on option 3 paying £27.99, moved there after trouble with sky last year. Thinking of moving to o2 for £10 pm but could do without the hassle of changing all my email addresses. What do you think the best deal i could get would be, hoping for £10 a month.

    Other option is AOL for a free PS3 for £15pm.

    Cheers

    Marco

    Jimmy: the best retention deal on option 1 is down to £12.99. We dont do any PS3 deals though, so we cant compare there. Option 3 line rental is, right now, stuck at £18.95 I am afraid.

    Marco: is that just the BB price? Or Bb and line rental?

    Move to an email address independent of your isp, everyone should do this.

    The above quote is a great thing for your isp as its one more obstacle (hassle) to deter you from moving.

    Companies rely on inertia (hassle) to retain customers.
    Move along, nothing to see.
