I just like other peoples views on this.
About 15 years ago i remember paying BT £250 to have a line installed. Since then I`m now with Virgin media and the phone line is now disconnected but the line to the house is still there or rather it was until last wednesday when a drink driver drove into the telegraph pole in the street and knocked it clean down. BT are in the process of putting a new one back up and when I spoke to them about my line, they said as I no longer have an account with them, then they do not have to put the line back.
At the moment I have no intention of going back to BT but its a case of you never know and I if I ever did I dont see why I should have to pay again.
