BT have always been allowed into Hull I thought? Just at extortionate prices, good to see a silver lining though

This is sounding good already, is it just businesses at the moment?
I hope OpenReach don't end up cancelling your order as usual!

BT are coming to see me in the first week of January. I shall know more then. I asked about personal lines, and they said not yet, but soon.
Incidentally a week prior to this i talkd to KCom business about price matching the nexus line prices, and they said there was nothing they could do and that there hands were tied when it comes to competing with nexus. it was a very strange conversation.

I'll believe it when i see it, OpenReach has a nasty habit of cancelling orders in this area, but otherwise i can see BT starting to sell to companies but not residents for a long LONG time. |

Seen this all before, BT promising services and failing to deliver.  If BT were coming into Hull it would have been all over the news. |

This is interesting, cause when we rang sky to degrade our tv package, which funnily enough... We are now getting sky sports for £1.10 a month, as a posed to £15 a month previously...
If you've been a customer for a long time, ring up and ask to remove sky sports, they may offer you the same thing...
ANYWAY... They said "Why don't you get Sky BB + Talk" and we reminded them that we live in a KC area etc, and they claimed that they will be able to offer soon, so I don't know... So much crap flying around... If it was me on the phone, I would have asked more, but it was my mum, and well she doesn't really share the same interests, lol.

They've claimed the same whilst on the phone to me every time I've called over the last 4 years :-D We'll see. |
