Tiny print on a letter and e-mail just received from BT says that the
1571 standard service is going to cost £1 per month if you don't make
at least 2 charged calls per month. Those who use their landline only
for broadband or only for receiving calls could get an unexpected
addition to their bill. At the moment http://www.bt.com/youraccount
still says it's free and provides no way to disable it, but watch that
space for a chance to do so.

I wonder if your letter is different from mine? Mine says that, in order to
get free 1571, you have to make 2 chargeable *or* *inclusive* calls per
month (or 6 per quarter - depending on billing frequency).

Bearing in mind that weekend calls to 01, 02 and 03 numbers are free (as
also are evening calls if you sign up for a rolling 12 month contract), it
surely can't be too difficult to contrive to make at least 2 inclusive calls
every month!
