Bulldog phoned me with an offer - £32 pcm

I notice that Bulldog is now £32 for 8Mb unlimited, inc phone line.

Now, this seems quite good, seeing as it's nearly £10 than it was a week or
two ago.

What's the catch?? I said for them to call back tomorrow - they said they'd
migrate me for a quid if I took it up.

If anything gees wrong , you will regret having to try to sort it, hundreds
if not thousands of customer complaints, be aware, cs is appalling. Bulldog
is probably the most incompetent company (not just telecoms) that I have
ever dealt with, a sentiment shared by thousands.

If you want sensible advice stay well clear or at least don't be foolish
enough to risk your main phone line.

This must getting desperate for Bulldog, they've been using door-to-door
salesmen to get customers.

Hate to do an AOL style 'Me too' but I think it is warrented here. The
Inquisitor is spot on, "Do not go to Bulldog!". I also have never come
across a more incompetent bunch. If you move to them you will regret it!

No doubt Bulldog will try it on and say, "Don't worry we have fixed our
problems, everything is great here now!" but this is quite frankly
bullsh*t.

Steer well clear!

Pay the extra money and get Zen. In the past I would have said Metronet
but now that Plusnet have bought them I expect things to go down hill
rapidly! :-(

Do not touch with a bargepole. I did, when I cancelled they said BT had my
number, BT says Bulldog does so I had to get a new number. My old phone
number still rings and is still answered by my voice on the voicemail, yet I
can not access it, this all happened 4 months ago and Bulldog still deny
anything is wrong.
