    I heard an ad on the radio for BT broadband for 10Euro a month for a year.
    What are the catches? they mentioned something about minimum amount of calls or something.:v: :v:

    not too many catches to be fair to BT except that the BB is €15 not €10 IIRC , thats €15 on top of €24 standard rental so its €39 total.

    add a talktime bundle and get another €5 off and BB <could> be €10 for advertising purposes. A good deal if you ring lots of UK and Irish landlines every month .

    I think that's the business deal where you have to spend fairly large minimum on calls every month. They then give you BB for a tenner.

    Those rates SB is quoting are promotional and are only available for the first four months. The best one is BB + line rental for €25pm.

    those rates are still good though

    Considering line rental is about €25, it's basically free broadband for four months. So yes, it's very good.

    BT Business offering has broadband for a tenner a month if you switch your phone over.

    I rang BT about this a few weeks ago but your phone spend has to be about €190 or greater a month to get that deal. Or so I was told.

    Yep, that's the deal. You have to spend something like €165.00 per MONTH on phone calls and you then get BB for €10.

    NOT WORTH IT imo. If I was spending €165 a month, I'd expect BB for free tbh.

    WHAT? I just changed to BT BBplus + line rental for 35 bucks a month..they did not mention any minimum spend and just looked up their website and did not find anything about a minimum spend...

    ...have I just been ripped off by BT or is the quoted info wrong (what I hope :eek:)

    Cheers

    No no, different things, your the residential product, the minimum spend is only on the business product.
