But I use Zen, and I pay them for the line rental, and it's less than I
would be paying BT.

Do Zen own, operate and maintain the physical copper/glass connection
to your premises? Do they offer a 365 day end of next day fault
repair option? Note: "end of next day" (which includes Christmas Day)
not "end of next working day".

Zen appear to be £16.99/month I'm due to renew with BT at
£21.04/month for rental *and* end of next day fault repairs. Cheap
(FSVO "cheap") calls are not a selling point for usas we don't make a
great deal of calls. £10 credit to the VOIP service provider lasts 3
to 6 months for SWMBO'd, me over a year...

Dave if its that important rapid backup and fault clearance then why not
get a mobile and a 3 or 4G dangle and mount it up on the chimney


And they are capable of kicking Openreach's arse when required, and are
much easier to deal with
