BT Internet

Advantages: In some remote places, BT is the only option
Disadvantages: They know they are the only option

...paid wads of ££’s to BT for their 24/7 Internet service. Alone, I must have part-funded a call centre in Delhi. Then in the summer of 04 (sorry, it doesn’t have quite the same ring to it as 69), BT finally offered Broadband to this remote Highland community. (With great reluctance, and many delays, I must add.) Fitivver, I signed up for BT Broadband – that’s the middle option, between BT Broadband Basic and BT Yahoo Broadband. Basic didn’t offer ...
...So I signed up for BT Broadband, not online, but by telephone, with a very nice chap who assured me my old BT Yahoo 24/7 subscription would be replaced by my BT Broadband charge from date of inception. I pay my BT bill by monthly Direct Debit, and like the plonker that I am, I haven’t checked my BT bill until now. It appears I am severiously in debt because along with my Broadband charges, I’m still being charged for the dial-up connection which ... Read review

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: BT Disconnects people for fun

Anyone who is familiar with BT Internet will know this opinion isn’t going to be singing any praises! Bt Internet charges customers £14.99 per month for their “Anytime” service. This service apparently allows customers to connect 24/7 - hence the name “Anytime”. What BT fails to make clear is that you are disconnected every 2 hours to allow others users to deter “heavy” internet use. Dial-up users sometimes have to wait hours before they can connect ...
...no data is being transferred, BT disconnects your modem! Because of the 2 hour cut off it is very difficult to download files without the use of a download manager which supports the “resume” function. I think BT fails to realize that the Internet is not in existence solely for the purpose of viewing pictures and text on a web page. As I am a web designer I use the Internet quite frequently, both morning and night. Searching through my E-mail Inbox ... Read review

Advantages: Reasonable monthly price
Disadvantages: Since they decided I was a 'high' user too many

...always been a fan of BT internet. I was one of their first customers to sign up when they released the free evenings and weekends access and have remained loyal ever since, including an upgrade to their Anytime package (£14.99/month) and a second BT line when we recently moved house. I had seldom encountered problems, but as a user of two ISP's rather than one, if I ever failed to connect on my first go with one, then I merely switched over to the ...
...another reason for staying with BT internet, my web-site, which attracts a reasonable amount of visitors and registers on most major search engines, something which has taken my nearly three years to establish, the thought of starting again does not appeal. So why I am writing here? A CHANGE OF CONNECTION NUMBER A few days after moving house, I received correspondence from BT Internet advising me that as a regular user of their service, they were ...

Advantages: Everything you need is on hand.
Disadvantages: None that I can see

...your Mail Box, check your BT Phone Bill, change or add Friends & Family number and discounts. This special feature of BT.com is an added bonus, and will therefore require added security to access the page. Again the directions are simple to use. I check regularly on calls made since I received my last bill, this does not include discounts to rentals charges and etcetera. My phone bill records the amount in value but did not include calls made 10pm ...
...quite happy with this new service, I use to feel that assessing these pages require ‘a techno mind’ but that is not so, having pass the prime of my youth I feel really confident in being able to handle such a site, age, barrier, creed, whatever you would say it BTopenworld is certainly the People’s Choice if they so require it. ...

Advantages: very easy to install, three packages to choose from.
Disadvantages: You get disconnected after every two hours.

BT INTERNET When I got my new pc one of the first things I wanted to do was to get the Internet, so I kept asking my mum to get the internet and telling her about all the good prices on offer out there and that I really needed it for my home work (lol). Then about six months later she telephoned BT and asked them for one of their Internet installation disks. When the disk arrived in the post I had to install it because no body else knows much about ...
...I think BT Internet is one hundred percent the best, because of many things, such as, it is very easy to install and set up, and it is quite simple and fast to register all your details and other things such as method of payment etc, There are three packages to choose from with BT Internet so you get to choose the one which best suits your needs, plus they all have very good prices, and they are: ANY TIME: With this package you can go on line whenever ...
