BT’s broadband awareness campaign aims to boost the number of UK high-speed internet users and is to be followed by a £23million campaign promoting BT Retail’s ‘no-frills’ broadband service. It appears that the UK telecoms giant is fearful that its campaign will be seen as unfairly benefiting BT Retail and BTopenworld, in conflict with the terms of its licensing agreement.
According to reports, BT claims to have reached its decision following an agreement with Oftel, however, the telecoms regulator has so far denied the existence of such an agreement.
