Re: BT Price Cuts!
Not only the extra £1 for the 9 million Standard Plan customers or those who use CPS or Indirect services with NO need for option 1 and its poor value. Other Stealth increases include.
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.
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.
