    Not last time I looked. I don't care if they've cleaned up their act now. BT have "cried wolf" far too often to convince me to look into their offering.

    Must be over a decade since you last looked.

    You obviously didn't look closely enough at the deals on offer.

    Which justifies my claim that hiding these terms in the small print, after you've been sold on everything else, is deceptively sneaky. How many other people wouldn't realise what they were signing up for? It just wastes everyone's times.

    No iSP quadruples the price after a few months. Ever. There may be an introductory offer of X, raising to Y after a number of months but that's made clear at the outset and the price for the remaining term on the contract will remain the same until the contract period ends. Then and only then would the price change to the standard rate for the package at that time.

    Show me the facts rather than your opinion.

    Absolute nonsense.

    You're the one making the outrageous claims, but sure.

    Which is why one calls for a new deal or switches suppliers.


    It's no different to Sky TV, Insurance, Mortgages, credit cards etc.

    It's business. Businesses hope that people can't be bothered and go onto the standard rate. You'd be amazed as to how many people don't shope around.
