BT bill

My bt bill came to £14 this month with BB and free weekend calls. I have a deal at £18.99 line rental + £2.50 for BB for 12 months. I am not sure whether I need to add vat. According to my bill rental and bb is £25.49 with special deal. I have paid line rental 12 months in advance. My only bill is £7.50 for bt sports and bb CS told me I am being charged £6.50 for BB. Total £14. Does this seem right? Thanks

I think they should add that question to school exam papers lol
Don't add vat
£2.50 BB + £5? BT sport = £7.50
After 12 months I think you will be charged £6.50 for BB (bargin for BT!!)0 -
But the bill is £14 rather than £7.50...
So it seems that there is a special deal of £25.49 for line rental and broadband, but the line rental has been paid up front, so taking away the £18.99 line rental charge, gives a broadband only charge of £6.50.
There there is an additional charge of £7.50 for BT Sport, taking total bill to £14.
Seems reasonable to me.Northern Ireland club member No 382 :j0 -
If you make more than one hour of weekday calls per month (at 12p per minute plus 21p connection fee) to UK landline numbers starting 01 and 02, and non-geographic numbers starting 03 you will have spent more than it would have cost for the "unlimited anytime" deal (£8 per month).0

My bill has risen in July and after studying it, it seems to have been for my BT Essential TV, this was negotiated including a 2 yr package and was for £6 then a reduction of £2 monthly.
for some reason instead of it being for a full month as usual it was for 9-11th July. and had given me just a 0.19p reduction.
after a very long on-line chat with an agent, then TV Packaged Dpt, then Billing Team and being told my bill was £79.53 per month, it is usually £26.50, then apologised for being wrong!
Told me the difference of £1.81 would be credited to my next bill and it had been a mistake.
Got this months bill today and B.T. Essentials is still £6.00, so no reduction at all.
All I wanted to know was had BT Essential TV had a price rise that I was not aware of?
That took nearly an hour and I'm still non the wiser, and am certainly not going through the hell of the chat-line again.
Had to laugh though as when I looked at how to contact B.T., it recommended using the chat-line as it was quicker:mad:0 -

Have you ever tried to post on there?
I hate it, it is the most disorganised forum ever.
I got a reply and tried to mark it solved, then tried to thank the person who answered.
Lost the will to live, and so gave up.0 -
