Office manager here (City Centre) took a phone call from BT this morning saying they are adding to competition in KC land.   I'll have to wait until I speak to her tomorrow to find out what they said but I believe they are sending some info through the post.

I will report again when I have more info...

Thats funny, a mate of mine said a BT rep was in his work place the other week saying that BT are coming to Hull in the next few months. I will believe it when I see it is what I said to him. Smiley

There are already a few companies that offer their services in 01482 land through Least Cost Routing (LCR).
This looks like BT have cottoned on to that and are marketing their services.

Don't expect BT to take over KC's network and any business signing up with BT should check out all their options before saying yes to BT, they are absolute sharks!

I get the impression it's all to do with the renewal of leases in 2012.  BT seem to be reccying interest for the future.  Also trying to get a meeting with us to sell stuff to so maybe it's just a marketting ploy.

I wonder how much money BT waste indulging in the advertisement of services that they cant deliver?
