Default BT Internet not that cheap

I needed broaband for my new flat recently, having my telephone services provided by BT meant they are the one I contacted before any other company.
When I eventually compared their package with other providers, Tiscali services fared far better so I went with Tiscali.

Default BT

I would never ever use BT for anything. A while back I had what I thought was an unlimited dial-up account with them (remember that). Anyway, I found out that I was dialling the wrongnumber the expensive way and ended up with a £250 phone bill.

Sad to hear about this, did you not try to come to some sort of agreement with BT? Did you have to pay the full bill?

Believe me I tried and failed. But hopefully I have cost them more than £250 by not using them since and telling everybody I can.
