Yikes, yet another re-contract offer from BT. Sits alongside other fixed-term offers like Line Rental Saver and BT Privacy. Its probably normal to have about 5 different term end dates with BT these days, unless maybe one pays for each service in the interim before re-contracting all the different offers on the same date.

Messy.

Oliver.

What's needed is a discount for those that have no interest in BT Sport.

Indeed (my current ISP) but not all BT users want BT Sport and may not wish to change their ISP. What next will BT require their customers to pay for regardless of whether they want it or not? And no, I don't include line rental here since the "line" is an essential part of the connection

Erm, BT Sport is free with BT Broadband. If you don't want it, a) they can't force you to watch, b) join another ISP.

Or move to BT Business where it is not available!

As is often the case it appears that you simply don't understand the question. You are however correct in that b) is the only option at present but that loses BT customers (as I guess does its Indian Call Centre) which I would have thought is something that BT would prefer to avoid.

I think in this case it is you who can't grasp the meaning of the word "free".

wont happen officially as then the "free of charge comes into dispute". unofficially via retention deals? who knows.

BT are so addicted to long term contracts have they really spent billions on rights just to make customers recontract? seems a bit excessive.
