The satellite installation in the west country has been the biggest earner
for BT over many years.
Peter Bonfield selling off what was then called BT mobile was a huge
business disaster!
A typical corporate story - bottom line fiddled by bean counters, and sod
the service from whence the company evolved!

        Clive and all,
        
        BT are really p***ing me off right now...
        
        Firstly all this spam filtering nonsense, then the fact that I keep
        getting emails telling me I don't appear to be using my 'free' 50GB
        cloud storage...which I am not using because the bloody BT cloud app
is
        written in Qt and as such is not accessible.
        
        And don't get me started on Indian call centres, where I am forced
to
        try to believe the bloke I am speaking to is called 'Steve' or
'Kevin'
        when clearly it isn't.  Which is insulting to both me and 'Steve'.
And
        because English is his second language he can only follow a flow
chart
        which has answers to questions asked by 90% of the muppets who phone
        them, but not the questions asked by the 10% who, like me, have a
        technical question, or more often a complaint.
        
        I am seriously thinking of ditching BT and moving to somebody else
if I
        can keep the same email address.
        
        BT just don't listen to their customers.

                Hi, I seem to be getting this lists posts with BT to date.
What is
                irritating is that on our BTInternet address which we do not
use and
                have never used we have recently received an increasing
number of spam
                on the BT address. As we have never used it the only
conclusion has to
                be that it seems BT are the culprits and are guilty of
spamming us and I
                suspect many others. We may bee soon seeking for alternative
options to BT.

                        and then use an alternative account, there is NO
reason BT should be
                        classifying this group as spam. and they would
likely not be very
                        forthcoming in explaining their reasoning
either.(but that is another
                        story altogether)

                                In the last three or four weeks I have
suddenly been getting very few
                                messages from access-uk.
                                
                                I spoke to Mo and he suggested this might be
BT's over-zealous
                                spam-filtering, which is incredibly hard to
turn off because the site is
                                not very accessible and the setting is
buried deep, a bit like the
                                Vogon's planning application to demolish the
Earth.
                                
                                So I have unsubscribed from access-uk on BT
and rejoined from my
                                raspberryvi account.
                                
                                I am instantly getting stuff from the list
again.
                                
                                So if you're suddenly getting very little
stuff from the list and you're
                                a BT customer, it's their fault.  Oh...of
course...you probably won't
                                get this message.
