BT decided to send me this:

 

SECOND NOTICE: YOU ARE STILL IN BREACH OF OUR TERMS & CONDITIONS

 

 

Dear Customer,

 

We refer to our previous email regarding your BTopenworld account.

 

Our records show that your account continues to be connected for long periods of time - typically 12 hours or more in a day. Unfortunately, as we informed you in our earlier email, this is a breach of our Terms & Conditions. To review these, please go to http://www.btopenworld.com/helpnb/terms

 

We are sorry to tell you that your account will be terminated from 6th August 2002, in accordance with our Terms & Conditions (paragraph14 (b)).

 

If you use a BTopenworld for BT Surf Package please note that only your BTopenworld for BT Surf Package will be terminated. If you no longer need your separate BT Surf Package, you should cancel it by calling BT Retail on 150 using a BT line.

 

An 'always on' internet connection may better suit your needs and you may wish to consider high speed BTopenworld Broadband Plug & Go. It's up to ten times faster than a standard modem and uses your existing BT line without affecting your voice calls. Once set up, there are no extra charges above the monthly rental fee. To find out more and check broadband availability in your area, please go to http://www.btopenworld.com/broadband

 

if they dont want my business thats fine ill go elsewhere, t**ts!

Wasn't there something on Watchdog about this? I thnk BT made an apology to somebody - could be wrong though.

 

Si.

Clarkey,

 

That's one of the reason's I moved from them. They sell you a package saying you can use it between certain hours and then say you use it too much and when you consider how slow they actually are...... - yet another British rip off.

If you end up without an ISP http://adial.co.uk/ has a free service (only local phone charges). The dial up number is 0845 609 1370 and the username and password are both uk2 . ADSL or a cable modem might be a good upgrade for you. I believe NTL may have a low cost 128kbit cable modem option.
