YOU CAN'T BT IT

18bt_2HERE’S a deal that’s hard to BT—for just £5 a month.
Over three million BT Total Broadband customers now have the option to pay a fiver on top of their existing contracts to access the net at 333,000 wi-fi spots around the globe on a new phone.
And if there’s no wi-fi access, they can use the phone network to access the web because each tariff for this service includes free phone minutes. So with the entry level tariff, you get 50 free minutes at £23.99 for the first three months (£29.99 after that).18bt2_2
It comes with a FREE HTC S620 or S710 smartphone worth over £150, loaded with Windows Mobile 6 and built-in camera. So you can easily sync your home pics, sounds, videos and office files with the device.
And you are operating from the same web servers that you use at home so your browsing is seamless and there’s no need to switch between email accounts. We tested the device and were very impressed, especially with the preloaded software.
The HTC S620 has a solid, well-built feel and compares favourably with a Blackberry Curve, and it comes with full Qwerty keyboard.
The only slight downside is that the website displays are not up to the standard of the iPhone. The slideout keyboard on the S710 is perhaps better for those with bigger fingers
This deal is a must if you are an existing BT Broadband user because no other phone contract offers as much for so little.
For example, the £5 extra a month is cheaper than adding the web to your mobile phone on Vodafone, O2 and T-mobile, who all charge £7.50.
It is what it says on the tin, the most complete broadband experience.
