Title: Peak Rate Goes Distinctly Off!
Post by: TeaLeaf on January 07, 2005, 07:45:19 AM
The money grabbing bar stewards are at it again.  :(

Now I realise that most of you are not sat at your computers reading the forums before 8.00am in the morning as you use these hours (from 6.00am through to 8.00am) to  make all your telephone calls to family, friends and loved ones to avoid BT's peak rate call charges.  Well, the good news is that from 16th February you will have more time to sleep in; the bad news is that BT have twigged that all you cheap-skates spend two hours in the early hours of the morning abusing their off-peak service.  So as you are all clearly 'heavy users and abusers' they have decided to redefine 'peak' to make their higher daytime costs kick off at 6.00am rather than the current 8.00am.    Some gits will stop at nothing to make some extra profit.  :angry:
