Soldato
About a month ago had to go through the rigmarole with BT to get our Broadband package down from the staggering £58.99 they were going to put it up to, down to a slightly more reasonable £39.99. All agreed on the phone and told it would go through. Today get the email to check my latest bill and see that the forthcoming monthly charges for Broadband are listed as £58.99 and no sign of the discounted rate, with our direct debit jumping from £41 to £75 (which is more than £58.99 anyway).
Cue irate call just now from me to 150 and felt like I got nowhere. They have a record of my previous call but no one there with the authority to listen to the call... It has had to be logged as an "offline" complaint, i.e. presumably 9 to 5 people. Told them in no uncertain terms if it's not sorted we will be terminating and going elsewhere and put up with having to change the email addresses. Still didn't cut much ice nor did asking to speak with a supervisor.
Has anyone else encountered this with BT and if so was the matter (eventually) resolved satisfactorily? It is bad enough they even contemplate charging such an outrageous amount in the first place without having to go through the rigmarole of haggling each time the contract ends to a more reasonable price.
