Gena, I think I understand what the prices mean in your message,
(below) but they are rather mucked up by the equals sign intrusion and
some numbers which shouldn't be there.
Can I suggest that until this peculiar problem is sorted that we
resort to spelling out prices to avoid such unclearness?

Hi
Just to throw more confusion into the pot. I wouldn't have thought it
=
is such a big issue. Even Bulldog provide us with a service, it is BT
=
that had to provide the line up to the house. So if we were to take
up =
with BT, they'd come and inspect or install a new line within 7 days,
=
but as we were contractually obliged to continue with Bulldog when we
=
moved here, we had to wait 28 days. I'd go with what was NTL now
Virgin =
if I could simply because the infrastructure is new and more capable
of =
taking data transmissions. ADSL services are just tacking on an old =
flaky network that was never designed for that purpose. But alas, we
=
all don't have the choice. There's a skill in choosing an Internet =
Service Provider and I've made some blunders. BT's support is better
=
but they charge more. You have to ask how critical is the support and
=
how critical is the finance. Take a second line here, for example, =
Bulldog will fit one for =A399.99 and will take up to 28 days as they
=
have to pass the request on to BT to undertake the work. For the same
=
service direct from BT and cut out the middle man it's =A3124.99.
Then =
the subsequent line rental from BT, if paid by Direct Debit, is
=A311.00 =
a month, whereas, Bulldog charge =A310.50 a month. There's also other
=
differences relating to the duration of the contract etc.. And this =
just the phone line to carry the ADSL service.
