I currently am on ISDN. When RFS date was announced I tried preregistering on the web for Broadband with BT as they advertised that they would buy out the contract, all done for free! I thought ok.... I then a few days later had a lady from BT bell me to say all ok and that they would first get my ISDN put back to analogue. Today an engineer called to do the work. I was very suprised and I said has the exchange already been converted!!!! He said dunno!! I will phone and see!! His superiors then said, not due till May!! I then checked (what I thought was just a standard bill from Bt, that I had recieved this week!) This stated that an engineer was due to call on the 18th to convert my ISDN to a single analogue line for the charge of £40 odd quid!! I phoned up and managed to cancel everything I hope!!They had 4 orders planned for me first to get rid of ISDN, then put me on a single anologue line( I suddenly lose my internet and fax line!!)... then wait a few months, then?????
BEWARE on pre ordering!!!
Been advised now to hold fire on everything until broadband is actually available! Then order transfer and all should be seemless!!
