home 500 plug n go

thanks

The origianl BT Openworld Home 500 had no usage limits, they were introduced some time after the merger with Yahoo. Think the hard usage limits were introduced around 2005.
BT Broadband allways had limits from introduction in 2002.,

Assuming you are the OP, (and things would be much simpler if you registered, especially if you are going to start hunting for an ISP ), then we need to know your exchange. The best thing is for you to post the link to what samknows says.

RobertoS will reregister cant rember my orignal name login ( yes its been that long and reliable my broadband connection service)

Don't forget that the terms and conditions are subject to change, with the relevant ones on BT.Com. For example, you may find that your original package was renamed BT Broadband Classic, or that a usage allowance was subsequently added or changed.

I would phone BT sales and see if they can do you a deal upgrading to one of the current packages, as even BT option 3 is less than you ae paying now.

I think they do broadband and calls for with the first 3 month half price.

Seeing as you replied to me, no thanks. Anyway I'm in the first month of a 12-month contract with IDNet.

Pass the word to all your friends & interested party's.

BT Broadband March special deals are still running, I helped complete another

renewal deal on Saturday. i.e 12 month contract Option 1 £5.00p month.

' Any time calls ' deal is £5.00p month & can be added to all Option deals.

This deal worth taking as weekday calls are now 07:00 to 19:00

Was also offered Option 3 for £13.00p month & that includes ' Anytime calls '

worth £5.00p month. The Broadband is only costing you £8.00p month. ( unlimited usage )

The ' pay line rent upfront ' deal is still running this now saves £ £46.80p year.

You don't have to be in last 2 weeks to renew, in my case renewal date was 22 July 2011 !

BT Options team 0800 328 6738 only this dept can give the best deals !
