BT Robbing us - AGAIN

[wots]

Currently, you can be charged for not making phone calls and not paying by DD.

Now you have this gem from 1st July

https://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44027/kw/paper%20billing/c/761,2072,2098

I object to everything paper free as I like to receive a utility and bank statement through the post, just for id purposes.

What's next, a charge for not answering your phone? My phone isn't plugged in, I don't use it as no-one calls me on it that I need to speak to.

Virgin Media have been doing this for a few years, £2 for a paper bill and I think £5 charge for not paying by direct debit, another money scam. Better for the enviroment how?, instead of paper you now use more energy in the pc and associated perepherals.

A charge for not paying by DD!?

I always thought most companies just give you a discount for paying by DD.

You have to understand as with most ex public utilities and companies (like BA).


BT isn't a teleco, its a massive pension black hole with a small teleco attached to it

BT have, year on year, since 1992, been making, annual, net profits measured in Billions.
Their average, annual, pension liability is 533M!
Hardly a "Black Hole"!

I don't think they've been linked to BT for a decade now. Internet is supplied by BE or was (I think they've just offloaded that to Sky I think), O2 was/is part of Telefonica.

The worst thing is, they keep ramming e-billing and other such nonsense down our throats to save, save, save and the one thing we still have on paper is one the one thing no-one needs anymore. The tax disc. Not only that, as these are special paper with markings etc. etc. they are inherently expensive. I know it's the old debate, but you MOT paper is almost useless these days. My garage actually prints on green paper so it looks more realistic.

Insurance is just the same, e-certificates because they show up on MID. Yet I had to laugh when I canceled a policy last year, I was sent an e-certificate that I printed out. When I canceled they insisted I returned the certificate as legally required :LOL:
