And followed by an email this afternoon, generously offering me an upgrade to Halo 2 for £42.99 a month on a 24 month contract."There are not enough superlatives in the English language to describe a 'Princess Coronation' locomotive in full cry. We shall never see their like again". O S Nock0

Closely followed by another email offering me Halo 1 for £41.99 for 24 months. They are relentless, and flogging a dead horse.poppasmurf_bewdley said:And followed by an email this afternoon, generously offering me an upgrade to Halo 2 for £42.99 a month on a 24 month contract."There are not enough superlatives in the English language to describe a 'Princess Coronation' locomotive in full cry.

Well I’ve been ‘upgraded’ to halo 1 without asking and when my contact ends in January I guess now I’ll be leaving BTNever, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.1

My letter offered me the same price for Halo1 but a new 24 month contract. If I were with BT mobile it might be worth it.
EDIT
I looked on my BT a/c and found out that I'd been upgraded without my knowledge on 12th July. No idea if this has started a new contract but not happy and will contact them.0 -
i phoned bt to get a upgrade to fttp i asked for the cheapest package and they put me on hallo 1 £39.99, i am
getting 150mbps. i don't need that speed for what i do on pc.
But a person who lives in the same street as me, has been put on fttp fibre 1. £26.99. they are getting a
down load of 50mbps,
apparently there are two different sales team for bt fibre broadband?0 -

As an aside; what are the BT Marketing team smoking when they dream up their branding concepts?
"Halo"?
And what's the half-life of a newly named product:-- "Infinity" (2010) Is that still what they call it; or has the rival's Buzz Lightyear "to infinity and beyon..." parody seen it off?
- "Vision" (2006) which is what they called BT TV when I first bought it?
- "Fusion" (2005; top marks to any oldies who remember this) a claimed service to boost your mobile reception via the 1st generation of Routers, offered to us when we first bought their Mobiles? Never really worked, so soon forgotten

Fusion was a fixed/mobile convergence product so was a very apt name.0
