http://www.bt.com/Choices/index.jsp?...K&obsOID=46321


ok so the line rental is £1.50 more a month but 6 p for a whole hr the cost would soon be saved i am very very very close to re joining bt not out of choice but they seem to offer much better choice than ntl at the moment ...... hurry up ntl i won t wait forever :mad:

Re: will ntl offer what bt have
 

BT's prices will change in June (This Year) bringing BT prices lower, a heavy user will save around £100 a year, average users will save around £70 a year, unless NTL & other competitors bring their prices down first BT will once again be setting the stamdard that all others follow.


My guess is NTL will wait till after June before they anounce anything.

£1 extra a month, Poor value for money compared to Indirect of CPS such as talk talk call118866.co.uk

Also stealth charges BT dont pubicly announce like:

BT Call Minder (Voicemail)
Current: £6/quarter
Will cost £7.50/quarter from May 1st


BT Answer 1571 - Personal Greeting
£3.00/quarter
Will cost £4.50/quarter from May 1st


From 1st August 2004, BT are introducing a "Charge Per Activation" if you use 1471 and then press "3" to automatically dial the last number called. -

Cost? 6p per go.


BT increases directory inquiries charges.

Calls to BT's 118 500 service will now have a 40p set up charge against 25p before - although the price per minute rate halves to 15p.

BT previously claimed their average call duration was only 28 seconds. Based on this, users will now pay around 47p a call under the new tariff instead of 40p as before.

From 1st August 2004, the cost of using ringback (press 5 on engaged tone) is going up from 10p to 15p.

Calls to Timeline (Speaking Clock, 123 ) are increasing from 10p to 20p per call.

This plan from ntl is the same as Option 1 http://www.ntlhome.co.uk/ntl_telephone/talk.html

Except that monthly rental from BT will be £1 cheaper than NTL.

Midweek evening calls after the first 60 minutes with BT will be charged at half the price that NTL charge (1p BT, 2p NTL)

Evening and weekend calls of upto one hour will cost 5.5p with BT and 6p with NTL.

Weekday daytime calls with BT will cost 3p per minute with a 5p minimum whilst NTL will charge 3p per minute plus 5p connection charge.

BT will only charge £1 for payment other than DD whilst NTL charge £2.

BT users can take advantage of other providers call prices if they are cheaper.

BT users have a choice of many xDSL providers if they live in an upgraded exchange and within the applicale distance.

NTL had better get to work revising their adverts and thinking about how they will react to the change in BT prices.
