Keeping you informed
From 1 July 2015, the cost of calls to service numbers from a landline or a mobile is made up of two parts: The Access Charge: Is 9.58p per minute (changing to 10.24p per minute on 20 September 2015) from a BT landline and 30p per minute from a BT mobile. The Service Charge: This is set by the organisation or service you're calling. You should see the price wherever the number is advertised. Calls to 0845 and 0870 numbers will continue to be inclusive from your BT landline, depending on which calling plan you’re on. Fair Usage Policy applies*.
Changes to terms
Early Termination Charges: These charges apply only if you cancel during the minimum term of your contract and are payable for each month of the minimum term outstanding on your contract. If you cancel after the minimum term ends, then no Early Termination Charge is payable. We're increasing some of our Early Termination Charges from 20 September 2015. For more details please visit bt.com/earlytermination.
Cease Charge: In some circumstances when you end your broadband service you may have to pay a cease charge. This will also be changing from 20 September 2015. For details please visit bt.com/ceasecharge.
Information about Broadband Usage Policy: From 1 October 2015, for customers on capped usage products, usage charges will be changing to £1.50 for every gigabyte (GB), or part of, you go over your allowance. To monitor your monthly usage, please go to bt.com/broadbandusagemonitor. We have also updated the policy to clarify when we will exercise our right to upgrade you when you exceed your usage cap. To find out go to bt.com/broadbandusagepolicy.
TV: We've changed our terms. Sometimes we may switch you to an equivalent subscription pack of channels and tell you beforehand. But if the new one costs more, and you don't want to pay the extra, we'll let you end your TV contract with no fee for leaving early. And occasionally we may withdraw channels and tell you straight afterward. But if we think losing a channel will mean you end up paying more for less, we'll let you end your TV contract with no fee for leaving early.
*Fair Usage Policy: 0845 and 0870 calls of up to an hour included in the inclusive periods of your calling plan are subject to a Fair Usage Policy. You can make a maximum of 150 calls or 1000 minutes to 0845 and 0870 numbers in a month. If either of these limits on inclusive calls is exceeded, BT will charge for all further calls until further notice.
