shazziere

Can anyone help please?Dunkster?i have a bt landline but calls are through ontel.We have a slow broadband with bt under no contract but have seen dealsout there with talktalk for £16.xx which includes line rental

i am very nervous about switching companies ....i do not really understand all this technology....adsl broadband bundle width etc but would be grateful if anyone can tell me of any better offers out there.

We also have sky which is why i feel we do not need the bt vision thing as this is only freeview??

Holster: PM sent in response to your PM to me.

Mazio, Option 3 has the same deals online or off. Though some sites offer a cashback reward, I just dont kno which ones. Sorry.
Shaz, are you still under contract on your BT BB? What calls package do you use?

Hi Drunkstar
Just a bit of info on Bt`s COT. I phoned yesterday and spoke to a lady about what Bt can give me to retain me as a customer. I`m on BB option 1 paying £17.99 pm. She said it could be reduced to £12.99 + £10.50 line rental. She didn`t offer anything else I had to ask about BTVision which is no good to me on a slow speed line. She didn`t seem to be bothered about retaining me as a BT customer and I wonder why she is in that department.

I am now looking at other bb suppliers.

YorkyDave: sorry, are you asking for help or giving an opinion? Im a tad confused.

Cornholio: I havent been in for a couple of weeks due to illness (still ill ) so this may have changed but I doubt it

Current minimum possbile on all the contracts are:



Option 1: £12.99
Option 2: £14.99
Option 3: £19.99


OR

6 months free on an 18 month contract.

many thanks !

Why don't new customers have any bargaining power ?

8.95 for 6 months then £17.99 on 18mnths contract, is still quite alot for someone that doesnt want to use it loads !

New customers can go to ANY provider that they want to! That is bargaining power isn't it?

It doesn't seem to be because when my friend has asked for the best deal she has been offered what is standard and nothing else !

Should she be doing it some other way ?

Has any new customer managed to get anything other than the standard deals ?

Why not choose from one of the many other ISP's?
