Have BT actually said they'll definitely make the charge? Quite often they

But it is a *new* line! New property, new line.

Why should it be free, or subsidised? That would only mean that
existing BT subscribers would be paying for it.

I'm sorry, but I don't see why I should pay for someone else's new
phone line.
