iansheff 88 #1 Posted January 20, 2022 I have just read that BT are putting their prices up, not a little price hike but 9.3%. It is ridiculous how these companies can get away with raising prices by so much, it is pure greed.

zach 235 #3 Posted January 21, 2022 What a joke that link is. If BT had got it's finger out much earlier and upgraded the network, instead of big bonuses for the fat cats. We wouldn't have to pay for their seriously oversold network. I've been with them years but every month now, they are reducing my speeds...and the 101 excuses why it's happening. it's called DLM, that's in place and setup to save BT bandwidth.
