Re: What???

Wow, BT surely has some nerve to pull this out of greed to dupe some poor idiots when it can be done for no charge here.

This kind of stuff has been around for ever.
Use to be big business selling tweak programs for dial up. They didn't do anything you can't.

Yeah, they must really have some nerve to charge to come out and do something that the end-user want but is not willing or able to do themselves.

Seriously, though, I'm no fan of telecoms in general, but 9 out of 10 end-users couldn't/wouldn't do this stuff themselves, so I see no problem in someone coming out to do it for them.

80% of the stuff IT techs do is stuff that the end-user could do themselves if they had the interest/knowledge/desire to do so. Fact is, most end-users don't want to sit down and page through tons of posts by geeks speaking in a language they don't understand, they just want their stuff to go faster.
