"General Manager of Voice Propositions in BT Retail’s consumer division."
That is *not* initially a good sign for many people, although I must admit I was a bit surprised recently to see that BT either match or undercut Virgin phone call tariffs on almost any meaningful comparison, so maybe I'm prejudging things.
I just hope having signed up with them that we get the same or improved level of service provided in the past...
I hope BT leave well alone with Plusnet! Its far superior to any service BT offer.
