I got a flyer advertising a good deal. Fine except when I try to do a
speed check I have to log in, they ask for data (BT numbers etc) which I
do not have. How can I overcome this? their help system Is of not help
whatsoever! :-))

I guess if you don't have a BT line (or any POTS line) you can't have BT
Internet.

How can you test line speed, if you don't have a line?

They can tell you the likely speed you can achieve, based on your
address and choice of broadband type - fibre, copper or FTTC.

I suspect you need a bt line already. If not I'm sure the price will sort of
grow.

I have a BT line, supplied by Plusnet. However I decided in the end to
phone BT and they have resolved it.,

Having recently had our availability changed (from ADSL only to FTTP) - the *only* site that updated immediately was BT OpenReach's own site.

Most ISPs didn't know.

Well I went for BT in the end. Not a happy experience, I swapped my
mobile at the same time. The old supplier quickly disconnected it,
whereas I am still awaiting for the SIM from BT, result no mobile
connection! As regards the internet time will tell, it is supposed to be
moving on the 12th, I will see!
